Example Question #55 : How To Find Range

A group of students recorded humidity for a week for a project. Here is their data set:

10%, 7%, 23%, 100%, 2%, 6%, 3%

What is the range of their data set?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The range of the data set is the difference between the greatest and lowest values of a data set. In order to solve for range, you must order the data set from least to greatest so you may take the difference. 

The data set:

10%, 7%, 23%, 100%, 2%, 6%, 3%

may be rearranged as follows:

2%, 3%, 6%, 7%, 10%, 23%, 100%

This allows us to see that the smallest number is 2% and the greatest is 100%.

Therefore, in order to solve for the range:
