Answer 1

The range of a data set is said to be the difference between the highest value and the lowest value in the given set of data.

To find the difference in the ranges of the 2 sets of data, find the range of data set A, find the range of data set B, then subtract the range of A from B.

Thus, we have:

For data A:

Minimun data value = 08

Maximum data value = 35

Range of data set A = 35 - 08 = 27

For data set B:

Minimum data value = 01

Maximum data value = 30

Range of data set B = 30 - 01 = 29

Difference in the ranges = Range of set B - Range of set A = 29 - 27 = 2

Therefore, the difference in the ranges of the sets of data is 2
