Math Scores98761008882

Answer 1

B. 24

Explanation:

We have been given a data set that represents the math scores of five of Max's classmates. We are asked to find the range of the given data set.

Math score: 98, 76, 100, 88, 82.

Since we know range is the difference between the largest and smallest values of the data set.

`\text{Range}=\text{The largest value of data set - The smallest value of data set}`

We can see that largest score is 100 and smallest score is 76.

`\text{Range}=100-76`

`\text{Range}=24`

Therefore, the range of the given test scores is 24 and option B is the correct choice.
