Question

Which of the statements below is true for the following set of numbers?42, 10, 36, 51, 70, 28The range is 70 and the midrange is 39.The range is 14 and the midrange is 35.The range is 60 and the midrange is 30.The range is larger than the midrange.

Answer 1

Given that;

42, 10, 36, 51, 70, 28

max = 70

min = 10

range = 70 - 10 = 60

midrange = (max + min)/2

= (70 + 10)/2

= 80/2

= 40

Therefore, The range is larger than the midrange.
