Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to check range of all options first

For A:

Largest Value: 5

Smallest Value: 1

So range = Largest value - smallest value

5-1 = 4

For B:

Largest Value: 6

Smallest Value: 4

Range = 6-4 = 2

For C:

Largest Value: 9

Smallest Value: 1

Range = 9-1 = 8

For D:

Largest Value = 9

Smallest Value = 3

Range = 9-3=6

So, the data set in option C has the largest range
