To determine the range of calories for Margo's morning and afternoon snacks, we'll calculate the ranges based on the provided box plots.

1. **Morning Snacks:**
- Minimum: 75 calories
- Maximum: 260 calories
- Range = Maximum - Minimum = 260 - 75 = 185 calories

2. **Afternoon Snacks:**
- Minimum: 240 calories
- Maximum: 375 calories
- Range = Maximum - Minimum = 375 - 240 = 135 calories

Now, we can compare the two ranges:

- The range of calories in Margo’s morning snacks is **about 185 calories**.
- The range of calories in her afternoon snacks is **about 135 calories**.

So, we can complete the statement as follows:

The range of calories in Margo’s morning snacks is about **greater than** the range of calories in her afternoon snacks.
