Detailed Solution & Explanation

We are given the dataset: 28,22,40,20,15,50\displaystyle 28, 22, 40, 20, 15, 50. - Maximum value (L\displaystyle L) = 50\displaystyle 50 - Minimum value (S\displaystyle S) = 15\displaystyle 15 The range is defined as the difference between the maximum and minimum values: Range=LS=5015=35\text{Range} = L - S = 50 - 15 = 35 Hence, **Option C** is the correct answer.
