If none of these numbers in the two groups are same, what would be the range of the 13 numbers..? Range is the difference between max and min values in a set, right? So how can the range of 6 consecutive positive numbers be anything but 5?

There is no data on the relationship betn the 2 sets of numbers. assume one set is 1000,1001,1002,1003,1004,1006.8 --------- range = 6.8 other set is 10,15,16.8,11,10.2,18,23.2 ----------- range = 13.2 the 2 sets could contain absolutely anything and still satisfy the range criterion. so i guess this is a case of insufficient data.
