Answer:

D. Find the difference between the largest and smallest values.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mathematical definition of "Range" is as follows:

The difference between the highest and lowest values.

For example, in the data-set of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

The range of the data-set would be 4, because 5 - 1 = 4.
