Explanation

The correct answer is $29$ . The range of a data set is the difference between its maximum value and its minimum value. For the data set shown, the maximum score is $52$ and the minimum score is $23$ . The difference between those scores is $52 minus 23$ , or $29$ . Therefore, the range of the $7$ scores shown is $29$ .
