A veterinarian treated 7 dogs this morning. The list below gives the weights (in pounds) of each dog.
24, 3, 29, 24, 8, 38, 62
Find the range of the data set.
To find the range of a data set, you need to subtract the smallest value from the largest value.
The smallest value is 3 pounds and the largest value is 62 pounds.
Therefore, the range of the data set is 62 - 3 = 59 pounds.
