Answer:

To find the range of scores for all the students in both classes, you need to consider the lowest and highest scores across both Class A and Class B.

For Class A:

- Lowest score = 39

The range for Class A is given as 57.

So, the highest score in Class A can be calculated as:

Highest score in Class A = Lowest score in Class A + Range of scores for Class A

Highest score in Class A = 39 + 57

Highest score in Class A = 96

For Class B:

- Lowest score = 33

The range for Class B is given as 60.

So, the highest score in Class B can be calculated as:

Highest score in Class B = Lowest score in Class B + Range of scores for Class B

Highest score in Class B = 33 + 60

Highest score in Class B = 93

Now, to find the range of scores for all the students in both classes, you need to find the lowest and highest scores from both Class A and Class B:

Lowest score overall = minimum(Lowest score in Class A, Lowest score in Class B)

Lowest score overall = minimum(39, 33) = 33

Highest score overall = maximum(Highest score in Class A, Highest score in Class B)

Highest score overall = maximum(96, 93) = 96

Now, you can calculate the range of scores for all the students in both classes:

Range of scores for all students = Highest score overall - Lowest score overall

Range of scores for all students = 96 - 33

Range of scores for all students = 63

So, the range of scores for all the students in both Class A and Class B is 63.
