Range subtracts the lowest value from the value in your data set. If you have an outlier, meaning a number either obviously outside the data, your range will be incorrect because one of the values will not represent the average pattern of the data. For example: if your data values include 1,2,3,4,and 17, 17 would be the outlier. The range would be 16 which is not truly representative of the rest of the data.

What is an outlier in math?
Outliers are basically numbers, in a set of numbers, that don't belong in that set and/or that stand out. For example, in the data set {3, 5, 4, 4, 6, 2, 25, 5, 6, 2} the value of 25 is an outlier. For a set of numerical data (a set of numbers), any value (number) that is markedly smaller or larger than other values is an outlier. This is the qualitative definition. Mathematically, a quantitative definition often given is that an outliers is any number that is more than 1.5 times the interquartile range away from the median. However, this is not definitive and in some cases other definitions will be used.
