Respuesta :

Jesse has the largest range between the two players. The difference between their ranges is 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Jesse's range: 14
Barbara's range: 10
Range is determined by using the largest number and the smallest number in a set of integers and subtracting them. Jesse's highest number was 24, and his lowest would be 10. 24-10=14.
Barbara's highest score was 22, while her lowest was 12. 22-12=10.
subtracting Jesse's range from Barbara's range would equal 2.
(please don't cook me if this is incorrect but i'm 97% sure i'm right)

Answer:

Jesse has the largest range. To find the range you have to take the greatest value and the lowest value to find the range. Jesse's largest value is 24 points while his lowest is 10 points making his range 14 points. Barbara's highest value is 22 points while her lowest is 12 points making her range 10 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

24-10=14 Jesse

22-12=10 Barbara
