Paula runs with 2 of her friends. The table below shows their last 3 lap times.Name Lap 1 Lap 2 Lap 3Paula 16 mins 20 secs 15 mins 50 secs 14 mins 40 secsKate 16 mins 30 secs 16 mins 20 secs 15 mins 40 secsSam 16 mins 10 secs 16 mins 10 secs 15 mins 30 secsWhat is the range in the lap times recorded?

Question
Answer:
The range is the difference of the greatest value of the data points and the least value. So, for Paula's data, the range is: 16 min*60s/min - 20 s = 940 s. For Kate, the range is: 16min*60s/min - 20s = 940 s. For Sam, the range is: 16min*60s/1min - 10 s = 950 s. If you want to find the overall range, find the greatest and least amount in all of the data given. The overall range is: 16min*60s/min - 10 s = 950 seconds.
