The range is the difference of the greatest value of the data points and the least value. So, for Paula's data, the range is: 16 min*60s/min - 20 s = 940 s. For Kate, the range is: 16min*60s/min - 20s = 940 s. For Sam, the range is: 16min*60s/1min - 10 s = 950 s. If you want to find the overall range, find the greatest and least amount in all of the data given. The overall range is: 16min*60s/min - 10 s = 950 seconds.

The range in the lap times recorded for the given set of data is:

  • 950 seconds.

What is a Range?

Mathematically, this refers to the difference between the greatest value of the data points and the least value where the values are subtracted.

With this in mind, we can see that there is a set of values which shows the lap times of Paula, Katem Sam and thus, to calculate the range, we would have to subtract the highest value of their lap times:

Paula's range is: 16 min*60s/min - 20 s = 940 s.

Kate's range: 16min*60s/min - 20s = 940 s.

Sam's range: 16 min*60s/1 min - 10 s = 950 s.

Thus, the overall range is:

16min*60s/min - 10 s = 950 seconds.
