whitemonsterbunny17 (whitemonsterbunny17):

Okay, so first, we'll find the \(\bf\color{red}{Range}\). The range of a set of data is the difference between the highest and lowest values in the set. To find the range, first order the data from least to greatest. Then subtract the smallest value from the largest value in the set. So, add 1+1+1+3+3+3+4+5+5 Tell me what you get when you add all of those.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the answer is The mean is 3.

whitemonsterbunny17 (whitemonsterbunny17):

Hold on. We're not there yet.

whitemonsterbunny17 (whitemonsterbunny17):
