Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The range is the difference between the highest and lowest values in a dataset, making it the best choice to identify the distance between these values. The median is the middle value in a dataset and does not provide information about the spread of the values. Variance and standard deviation measure the variability or dispersion of a dataset, but do not directly identify the distance between the highest and lowest values. Sample size refers to the number of observations in a dataset and is unrelated to the range.
