The range best describes the spread of a data set. The range is the difference between the maximum and minimum values in a data set, which gives a sense of how spread out the data points are. In this case, the range of the times for the high school boys' 100 meter race would be 18.0 - 11.0 = 7.0 seconds, indicating a fairly wide spread in the range of times.
