Question

What is the range of the data below?


2
5
12
13

Answer 1

Your answer is 13

Explanation:

To find the range, you take the highest number and the lowest number of your set of numbers, and subtract. For this problem, on the box plot, it shows that our highest number is 115 and our lowest number is 102. So, you would take 102 and subtract it out of 115. 115-102=13. So, the range is 13.

Answer 2

Answer: The answer is (d) 113.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the range of the data shown in the figure.

The range of a data is the difference between the highest and lowest values in the data. To find the range, at first we should order the data from least to greatest and then subtract the smallest value from the largest value in the data.

Since the data is already in the ascending order and

the highest value = 115, the lowest value = 102.

Therefore, the range of the data will be

`R=115-102=13.`

Thus, (d) 13 is the correct option.
