Natalie measured the length of every pen in her desk drawer and found that her 6 pens had lengths of: 9.5 centimeters, 8.6 centimeters, 9.5 centimeters, 9.4 centimeters, 8.7 centimeters, 8.1 centimeters What was the range of the pens' lengths? _____ centimeters

Arrange lengths in order: 9.5, 8.6, 9.5, 9.4, 8.7, 8.1 Arrange the lengths of the pens in ascending order. Data set in ascending order: 8.1, 8.6, 8.7, 9.4, 9.5, 9.5Calculate range: 8.1, 8.6, 8.7, 9.4, 9.5, 9.5 Calculate the range by subtracting the smallest length from the largest length. 9.5 - 8.1 = 1.4 Range: 1.4 centimeters
