Question

What is the range of the data in this stem-and-leaf plot? 2 14 19 32. 5.

Answer 1

Answer:

30

We'll be using the 5 numbers in your question.

In order to solve this problem, we need to know what range is.

The range is the spread of your data from the lowest to the highest value.

In order to find the range, we need to order the values from least to greatest.

Note: No picture of the stem-and-leaf plot is given in the question.

From least to greatest:

2, 5, 14, 19, 32.

Next, find the maximum and the minimum values.

Minimum: 2

Maximum: 32

Lastly, subtract the maximum and the minimum:

32-2=30.

Your range is 30.
