Answer:
One of the limitations of using the range is that it is a simple but poor measure of variability. It is very susceptible to poor representation of data spread. It is used mostly with ordered data or ordinal data.
Explanation:
The measure of the range of a set of given data can be established once the difference between the highest and lowest values is known.
The range is simple to use but only considers the smallest and largest data elements in the set without considering the middle values and other values that could influence results if the data spread is to be considered.
Ordinal data aren't numerical data. Examples include Time of day such as morning, noon, night.
