A range of 5 in a statistical context means that the difference between the highest value and the lowest value in a given dataset is exactly 5 units. For instance, if the minimum value in a dataset is 10, the maximum value must be 15, because 15 minus 10 equals 5. Alternatively, if the maximum value is 20, the minimum value would be 15. A range of 5 indicates a relatively narrow spread of data values, showing that observations cluster closely together without wide extremes across measurements, test scores, or temperatures.
