Answer 1

The range of the number of odd letters is 6

Using the parameters given for our Calculation;

Number of letters in students last names = (5, 12, 8, 12, 11, 8, 5, 5, 5, 12)

To find the range of the odd letters, we need to obtain a subset of the odd numbers,

• Odd numbers = 5, 11, 5, 5, 7

The range is the difference between highest and lowest values of a distribution .

• Maximum = 11
• Minimum = 5

The range is : 11 - 5 = 6

Answer 2

Given:

Number of letters in students last names =

5, 12, 8, 12, 11, 8, 5, 5, 5, 12.

To find the range of the odd letters, first write down the odd numbers.

Odd numbers = 5, 11, 5, 5, 7

To find the range, subtract the minimum data value from the maximum data value.

Minimum data value = 5

Maximum data value = 11

Range = 11
