Answer 1

To determine the range of the race times, you need to subtract the smallest race time from the largest race time.

Assuming the race times for the five runners are as follows (for example):

- Runner 1: 14 minutes
- Runner 2: 16 minutes
- Runner 3: 18 minutes
- Runner 4: 21 minutes
- Runner 5: (let's assume) 20 minutes

1. Determine the minimum race time: **14 minutes**.
2. Determine the maximum race time: **21 minutes**.

Then, calculate the range:

Range = Maximum time - Minimum time
Range = 21 - 14 = 7 minutes

If you have specific race times you want to analyze instead, please provide them and I can help you calculate the range based on the actual times.
