Formula used

Range = maximum value − minimum value. For the default set: maximum 24 − minimum 9 = 15.

This is the method behind the answer, so the result can be checked rather than simply trusted.

Assumptions used

What this answer assumes

Range shows spread only. Compare with average, median and standard deviation when the shape of the data matters.

  • All six visible input boxes are included in the range calculation.
  • A zero input is treated as a real data value, not as a blank or missing value.
  • The range measures only the full spread from smallest to largest; it does not describe the middle or typical value.
  • This is transparent descriptive statistics, not a probability model or formal uncertainty analysis.

Master’s Tip

How to use the result well

Master’s Tip: always read the range beside the actual minimum and maximum. A single extreme value can make the spread look large even when most values are tightly grouped.

What-if check

Endpoint sensitivity

Range is controlled by the smallest and largest values. Removing one endpoint shows how much the spread depends on a single extreme entry.

Method

Range = maximum value − minimum value. For the default set: maximum 24 − minimum 9 = 15.

  1. For 12, 18, 9, 24, 15 and 21, the smallest value is 9 and the largest value is 24. Range = 24 − 9 = 15.

Assumptions

  • All six visible input boxes are included in the range calculation.
  • A zero input is treated as a real data value, not as a blank or missing value.
  • The range measures only the full spread from smallest to largest; it does not describe the middle or typical value.
  • This is transparent descriptive statistics, not a probability model or formal uncertainty analysis.
