I wanna say (C) would be your best bet correct me if I’m wrong

Answer:

B. The weather pattern in City 2 is more consistent than the weather pattern in  City 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Range and Interquartile range(IQR) measures the spread of data. Range measure the overall spread and IQR measures spread in 50% of data.

Range is calculate by difference of maximum and minimum value whereas IQR is calculated by difference of First quartile and third quartile.

Since, the Range and IQR is less for City 2 as compared to City 1.

Thus, weather pattern of City 2 is more consistent as compared to City 1.
