To find the range you have to find the highest and lowest value. So R= H-L.

Your highest is: 21.6

Your lowest is: 4.

I believe you subtract both of them and that’ll give you your answer. try that and let me know if it’s right :)!. if it’s not i’m sorry :((

Answer:

18.8

Explanation:

To find the range of a data set, you subtract the smallest value from the largest value.

In this case, the smallest value is 2.8 and the largest value is 21.6.

Range = largest value - smallest value = 21.6 - 2.8 = 18.8

Therefore, the range of the data set is 18.8.
