Question

The range of the data: $25,18,20,22,16,6,17,15,12,30,32,10,19,8,11,20$ is

• A. $10$
• B. $15$
• C. $18$
• D. $26$

Answer 1

The correct option is D

$26$

Determine the Range of the Data set.

Explanation for the correct option:

Option (A). $26$

The given data is $25,18,20,22,16,6,17,15,12,30,32,10,19,8,11,20$

Here, the maximum value of the data is $32$

the minimum value of the data is $6$

Now,

$$\begin{gathered} \mathrm{Range}=\mathrm{maximum}\mathrm{value}-\mathrm{minimum}\mathrm{value} \\ =32-6 \\ =26 \end{gathered}$$

Thus, the range is $26$.

Hence, the correct option is $\mathrm{D}$.

Explanation for incorrect options:

As the range of the given data is $26$. So,Option (A) , Option (B), Option (C)are incorrect.

Hence, the correct option is $\mathrm{D}$.
