What is the positive difference between the mode and the ran [#permalink]
1
Mode is the number which has occurred the maximum number of times in the set.
Since, 40 (hours worked per week) was by maximum number of employees (27)
=> Mode = 40

Range of a set is the difference between the highest and lowest value of the set.
Highest Number of hours worked = 50, Lowest Number of hours worked = 15
=> Range = 50-15 = 35

Positive difference between Mode and Range = | Mode - Range | = | 40 - 35 | = |5| = 5

So, Answer will be C
Hope it helps!
