The ages of ten students of a group are given below
8-6, 9-0, 8-4, 9-3, 7-8, 8-11, 8-7, 9-2, 7-10, 8-8
(i) Lowest age is 7 years, 8 months
(ii) Highest age is 9 years, 3 months.
(iii) Range = highest age – lowest age = 9 year, 3 months, 7 year, 8 months = 1 year, 7 months
The ages of ten students of a group are:
8 – 6, 9 – 0, 8 – 4, 9 – 3, 7 – 8, 8 – 11, 8 – 7, 9 – 2, 7 – 10, 8 – 8.
(i) Lowest age = 7 years 8 months
(ii) Highest age = 9 years 3 months
(iii) Range = Highest age – Lowest age
= (9 years 3 months) – (7 years 8 months)
= 1 year 7 months
The ages of 10 students of a group are given below:
8 - 6, 9 - 0, 8 - 4, 9 - 3, 7 - 8, 8 - 11, 8 - 7, 9 - 2, 7 - 10, 8 - 8
(i) Lowest age is 7 years 8 months.

(iii) Range = Highest age – Lowest age
= 9 years 3 months – 7 years 8 months
= 1 year 7 months
