Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Recall range formula
The range of a data - set is calculated as $Range = \text{Maximum value}-\text{Minimum value}$.
Step2: Find range for Shelter A
For Shelter A, the minimum value is 6 and the maximum value is 28. So, $Range_A=28 - 6=22$.
Step3: Find range for Shelter B
For Shelter B, the minimum value is 14 and the maximum value is 32. So, $Range_B=32 - 14 = 18$.
Answer:
The range in shelter A is 22, and the range in shelter B is 18.
