Answer:

The standard deviation estimate by the Range Rule of Thumb = 18.3

Step-by-step explanation:

i) maximum = 96

ii) minimum = 23

iii) standard deviation $\approx$ $\frac{(maximum\hspace{0.1cm} - \hspace{0.1cm} minimum)}{4} = \frac{96 - 23}{4} = \frac{73}{4} = 18.25$

The standard deviation estimate by the Range Rule of Thumb = 18.3
