The means differ by 1, but the ranges differ by 40.
The means differ by 1, but the ranges differ by 2.
The means differ by 5, but the ranges differ by 40.
The means differ by 5, but the ranges differ by 2.

Answer 1

The first one is the right answer.

LeTesha's mean was 64 and her range was 56

Bernard's mean was 63 and his range was 16

so LeTesha's range minus Bernard's range is equal to 40 and the difference in their mean is one.
