Linda is making a line plot of the data below.
11.25, 12.5, 11.25, 14.125, 10.5, 11.25, 12
What are the least and greatest values in the data set?
A.
11.25, 14.125
B.
10.5, 11.25
C.
10.5, 14.125
D.
10.5, 12
C. 10.5, 14.125
To find the least and greatest values in the data set, you need to compare all the values and determine which is the smallest (least) and which is the largest (greatest).
The data set given is: 11.25, 12.5, 11.25, 14.125, 10.5, 11.25, 12
Comparing the values:
- The smallest value is 10.5.
- The largest value is 14.125.
Therefore, the least and greatest values in the data set are 10.5 and 14.125, respectively.
So, the correct answer is option C: 10.5, 14.125.
