DIFFERENT QUESTION

Jake is skipping stones onto a pond. Each time he flings a stone in, he counts
the number of times it skips over the water. The number of skips he recorded
for each stone were 3, 2, 1, 3, 2, 5, 4, 1, 3, 3, 4, 1, 5, 4, and 2.


Which measure should Jake use to calculate the difference of the highest and the lowest number of skips?

Answer 1

Jake is skipping stones onto a pond. Each time he flings a stone in, he counts

the number of times it skips over the water. The number of skips he recorded

for each stone were 3, 2, 1, 3, 2, 5, 4, 1, 3, 3, 4, 1, 5, 4, and 2.

The difference between the highest and lowest value is the range. The difference between the tallest and  shortest   is the range of the height

the difference of the highest and the lowest number of skips is the range of skips .

So answer is Range

Answer 2

Answer:

Range

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following data set for the number of skips every time Jake skipped a stone onto a pond:

3, 2, 1, 3, 2, 5, 4, 1, 3, 3, 4, 1, 5, 4, 2

It is a good idea to arrange the data set into ascending order just to be more clear about it:

1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5

Jake should find the range by calculating the difference of the highest and the lowest number of skips
