Math Problem Statement

Find the range for this list of numbers.

Solution

The question asks to find the range for a list of numbers provided in the table. The range of a set of numbers is calculated as the difference between the maximum and minimum values in the list.

Let's extract the numbers and calculate the range:

  • Numbers in the table:
    82,50,39,9,95,98,52,78,10,80,99,70,33,92,8782, 50, 39, 9, 95, 98, 52, 78, 10, 80, 99, 70, 33, 92, 87

  • Maximum value: 9999

  • Minimum value: 99

Now, we can calculate the range:

Range=999=90\text{Range} = 99 - 9 = 90

Thus, the range is 90.

Would you like a detailed breakdown of this process? Here are 5 related questions to explore further:

  1. How would the range change if we added an additional value to the list?
  2. What is the difference between the range and the interquartile range (IQR)?
  3. Can the range be used to measure the spread of the data effectively?
  4. How do outliers affect the range of a dataset?
  5. What other measures of spread exist besides the range?

Tip: Always check for outliers in a dataset, as they can dramatically affect the range.
