Question

Find the range of the given data set.
5/8, 3/4, 1 1/8, 1 1/4

Answer 1

It would be 0.125 or 1/8. You have to subtract the minimum number from the maximum. You’ll get the range from that.

Answer 2

the range of the given data set is 5/8

Explanation:

Range is the difference between the largest value in a number set minus the smallest value in a number set.

In this case, the largest value is 1 1/4 and the smallest is 5/8

We simply just subtract those 2 numbers to find the range.

• 1 1/4 - 5/8
• Find the common denominator
• 1 2/8 - 5/8
• Make the first fraction an improper fraction
• 10/8 - 5/8
• 5/8
