Question

Responses

40−20=20
40 minus 20 equals 20

45−16=29
45 minus 16 equals 29

40−16=24
40 minus 16 equals 24

45−20=25

Answer 1

To calculate the spread of a dataset, you subtract the minimum value from the maximum value.

In this case, the dataset is: 16, 40, 39, 45, 20

The minimum value is 16 and the maximum value is 45.

So, the equation that gives the value of the spread is: 45 - 16 = 29

Therefore, the correct answer is: 45−16=29
