Range of a Data Set Calculator
Find the range of a data set step by step
For the given set of observations, the calculator will find their range, with steps shown.
Your Input
Find the range of $$$1$$$, $$$9$$$, $$$5$$$, $$$-7$$$, $$$2$$$, $$$6$$$, $$$1$$$, $$$-6$$$, $$$9$$$.
Solution
The range of data is the difference between the largest and the smallest values in a data set.
So, sort the values.
The sorted values are $$$-7$$$, $$$-6$$$, $$$1$$$, $$$1$$$, $$$2$$$, $$$5$$$, $$$6$$$, $$$9$$$, $$$9$$$.
The largest value is $$$9$$$ and the smallest is $$$-7$$$.
Thus, the range is $$$9 - \left(-7\right) = 16$$$.
Answer
The range is $$$16$$$A.
