To find the range of a data set, you subtract the smallest value from the largest value.
First, let's identify the smallest and largest values from the provided data set:
Data set:
- 16,465
- 17,342
- 19,835
- 15,147
- 15,898
- 18,324
Smallest value = 15,147 Largest value = 19,835
Now, calculate the range:
Range = Largest value - Smallest value Range = 19,835 - 15,147 Range = 4,688
So, the range of the sample data set is 4,688.0.
The correct answer is: 4) 4,688.0
