Finding the range

For maths I did finding the range for some maths and some of the questions were really tricky for me. But I got there.
This is what my maths looks like.
Finding the Range - Using an Effective Subtraction Strategy


Range = Highest data - lowest data


Our three go to strategies:
  • PV: 73 - 27 = 73 - 20 = 53 / 53 - 7 = 46
  • EA: (73 + 3)  (27 + 3) = 76 - 30 = 46
  • Reversing: 27 + __ = 73 / 27 + 3 = 30 / 30 + 43 = 73 / 43 + 3 = 46
  


Work out the range for these sets of numbers. You must use each go to strategy at least once.


Highest Data
Lowest Data
Range
Strategy / Working Out
132
98
34
(132+2)-(98+2)=  134-100=34  EA
210
61
149
72
29
43
43
27
16
(43+3)-(27+3)=    46-30=16 EA
86
17
69
86-10=76           76-7=69  PV
365
49
316
365=300+65       65-49=      65-40=25  25-9=16   16+300=316 PV
1084
196
888
(1084 + 4)-(196 +4)=1088-200=  (1000-200) +88= 800+88=888  EA
