With the information above, we can get closer to our answer.

We need some prior knowledge to solve this. The "range" is the highest number subtracted by the lowest number.

This means that the the 22 was already subtracted to get 37.

Points to remember

Range of a data set is the difference between smaller value and larger value value in the set.

It is given that, the youngest person in the company is 22 years old. The range of ages is 37 years.

To find the age of oldest person

Range = 37 years

Youngest age =  22 years

Range = oldest age  - youngest age

oldest age = range + youngest age

 = 37 + 22

 = 59

Age of oldest person = 59 years
