Best Answer

Range is a concept in math, which is defined as the difference of the highest and the lowest number in data.

For example, you have the averages of the number of ants per square foot in several areas:

87

156

2

23

504

337

If you arrange it from lowest to highest, it will be easier to solve for the range.

2

23

87

156

337

504

Since range = highest datum (singular of data) - lowest datum, 504 - 2 = 502.

In this data, the range is, therefore, 502.
