Question 2 • Pre-Algebra B

Which of the following data sets has a range of 40?

Answer
A
{40, 10, 20, 100}
B
{40, 10, 20, 80}
C
{40, 10, 20, 50}
D
{40, 10, 20, 40}

Explanation

The range is the largest value minus the smallest value. In choice C, the largest value is 50 and the smallest is 10, so the range is 50 − 10 = 40. Therefore, the set {40, 10, 20, 50} has a range of 40.
