What is the range of the numbers?

1 answer

To find the range of the numbers in the gymnast's data, you need to subtract the smallest number of cartwheels from the largest number.

From the data:

  • The largest number of cartwheels is 10 (on Monday and Thursday).
  • The smallest number of cartwheels is 3 (on Sunday and Tuesday).

Now calculate the range:

Range = Largest number - Smallest number = 10 - 3 = 7

Therefore, the range of the numbers is 7.
