Lori asks some of her friends how many pets they have. The answers are as follows: 0, 6, 7, 0, 1, 1, 2, 0, 3, 1. What is the spread of this dataset?(1 point)

___

1 answer

The spread of a dataset is a measure of how spread out the data points are. One common measure of spread is the range, which is the difference between the highest and lowest values in the dataset.

In this dataset, the highest value is 7 (from the friend who has 7 pets) and the lowest value is 0 (from multiple friends who have 0 pets). Therefore, the range of this dataset is 7 - 0 = 7.

So, the spread of this dataset is 7.
