Question

Find the range of the following data.

Answer 1

Answer:

(D) 20

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the data as the scores, these are:

83, 77, 88, 93, 97, 79, 94, 80, 97, 81

In order to find the range, firstly arrange the data in ascending order, we have

77, 79, 80, 81, 83, 88, 93, 94, 97, 97

Now, the range of the given data is equals to highest data point- lowest data point, thus

$R=97-77$

$R=20$

Therefore, the range of the given data set is 20.

Hence, option (D) is correct.

Answer 2

The range is the highest number minus the lowest number
97 - 77 = 20
