Question

A distribution has the five-number summary shown below. What is the range of this distribution? 24, 36, 42, 57, 65

Answer 1

The range is the difference between the largest number and the smallest number. Since the numbers are already in order we just have to subtract 24 from 65: 65-24=41. the answer is A. 41 :) Hope that helps :)

Answer 2

Hello!

To find the range of the distribution, we must order the data from least to greatest (it has already been done) and then subtract the smallest value from the largest value in the set.

In this set, the smallest value is 24, and the largest value is 65. Subtract:

65 - 24 = 41

A N S W E R:

The range of the distribution below is A. 41.
Have a wonderful day!
