Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:  BStep-by-step explanation:mean - the average of a set of numbers. To find the mean of a data set, add up all of the numbers in the set, and then divide that total by the number of numbers in the set.range - The difference between the lowest and highest values. Take the highest value and subtract the lowest value to find range.median - the middle number in a set, also the number that is halfway into the set.Arrange all numbers (even if the same number list it twice)  in order from smallest to largest.  mark out one at each end working way towards middle.I started by finding range (B) because this took less time, it was a true statement.
