Thompson High 7
Hillview High 6
Westside High 6

What is the range of the numbers?

Answer 1

To find the range of the number of math teachers, you need to subtract the smallest number from the largest number.

From your data, the smallest number of math teachers is 2 (Green High) and the largest number is 10 (Moore High).

So, the range is calculated as follows:

Range = Largest number - Smallest number Range = 10 - 2 = 8

Therefore, the range of the numbers is 8.
