anonymous · Answer

you mean the " range " or the interquartile range " ??

anonymous · Answer

no it says age

anonymous · Answer

it says the range of the age

anonymous · Answer

Because the " range " is the highest number minus the lowest number
28 - 20 = 8 <== your range

the interquartile range is Q3 - Q1 
24.5 - 21.5 = 3 <== interquartile range

anonymous · Answer

then the answer would be 8 if it just says range

anonymous · Answer
