Question

A middle school basketball team has a roster of student-athletes with these heights in inches:

40, 60, 62, 55, 44, 70, 60, 51, 54, 63, 56, 49
Determine the range and midrange of heights among the students on this team.
Range =
inches
Mid-Range =
inches

Answer 1

Range = 30 inches

Mid Range = 55 inches

Explanation:

Range = largest number - smallest number

70 - 40 = 30 inches

Mid range (largest number + smallest number) / 2

70 + 40 = 110 ÷ 2 = 55
