The range of the dataset containing the numbers 2, 4, 6, and 8 is 6. To determine this result, you locate the maximum value in the set, which is 8, and the minimum value, which is 2. By applying the standard statistical range formula (Range=Maximum−Minimum), you subtract 2 from 8, yielding a final calculated range of 6. This figure indicates the total numerical distance covered between the lowest and highest data points in this specific set.
