To find the range of a data set, you will subtract the smallest value from the largest value.
First, identify the smallest and largest values in the data set:
- The smallest value is 10.
- The largest value is 28.
Now, calculate the range:
\[
\text{Range} = \text{Largest value} - \text{Smallest value} = 28 - 10 = 18
\]
Therefore, the range of the data set is **18**.
The correct answer is **C. 18**.
