Answer 1

To determine the range of a data set, you subtract the smallest number from the largest number.

First, let's identify the smallest and largest numbers from the given data:

• Smallest number: 28
• Largest number: 49

Now, we calculate the range:

Range = Largest number - Smallest number Range = 49 - 28 = 21 miles

The correct answer is 21 miles.
