The range is the difference between the greatest and least values.
77
Practice makes perfect
We want to find the range of the given data set.
45, 76, 98, 21, 52, 39
The range is the difference between the greatest and least values in a set of data. To find it, let's order our data from least to greatest!
45, 76, 98, 21, 52, 39 ⇔ 21, 39, 45, 52, 76, 98
In our data set, the greatest value is 98 and the least value is 21. We can subtract 21 from 98 to find the range. Let's do it!
Range: 98- 21=77
The range of the data set is 77.
