Question

Find the range of the data set : -5, -6, -1, -3, 6, 10

Answer 1

Answer:  16

Work Shown:

range = max - min = 10 - (-6) = 10 + 6 = 16

The range is the distance from the smallest item to the largest. Use of a number line might help sort out the values to see which is the smallest and largest.
