Exercise 3.1

Question 1

Find the range of heights of any ten students of your class.

Sol :

Let the heights (in cm) of 10 students of our class be 125 , 127 , 132 , 133 , 134 , 136 , 138 , 141 , 144 , 146 

Highest value among these observations = 146

Lowest value among these observations =125

Range = Highest value — Lowest value

= ( 146 – 125 ) cm
= 21 cm
