Find the difference between 'the range of the numbers of participants in the different Olympiads from College C' and 'The average number of participants per Olympiad from College E' during the given year.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 38

Range of college C = Highest numbers of participants in an event - Lowest numbers of participants in an event

⇒ Range of college C = 250 - 80 = 170

The average number of participants per Olympiad from College E = Total number of participants/Number of events = 660/5 = 132

Required difference = 160 - 132 = 38
