Answer 1

Answer:

e

Step-by-step explanation:

The spread of a data can be determined by calculating the range of the data

Range is the difference between the highest and lowest values of a set of observations

Range = highest value - lowest value

A = 7 - 1 = 6

B = 9 - 3 = 6

C = 8 - 1 = 7

D = 7 - 1 = 6

E = 9 - 1 = 8

Dataset E has the largest spread
