The cave with the largest mapped passage length also has the smallest floor area.: No
Cinder has the median value across all four listed physical characteristics (depth, volume, floor area, mapped passage length).: Yes
The range of depths among the five caves is greater than 1000 meters.: Yes
The table lists physical characteristics for five caves in the Karst Belt.

| Cave | Depth (meters) | Volume (million m^3) | Floor area (km^2) | Mapped passage length (km) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Azur | 180 | 40 | 24.0 | 55 |
| Boreal | 720 | 120 | 58.0 | 88 |
| Cinder | 790 | 180 | 51.0 | 120 |
| Dusk | 910 | 200 | 47.5 | 260 |
| Ember | 1280 | 600 | 73.0 | 160 |

Official Solution:
• The cave with the largest mapped passage length also has the smallest floor area.
Largest mapped passage length is Dusk at 260 km; the smallest floor area is Azur at 24.0 km^2. They are not the same cave. Answer: No.
• Cinder has the median value across all four listed physical characteristics (depth, volume, floor area, mapped passage length).
Sort each column and take the middle value (third of five). For depth, volume, floor area, and mapped passage length, the middle value in each case belongs to Cinder. Therefore, the statement is true. Answer: Yes.
• The range of depths among the five caves is greater than 1000 meters.
Depth range = max - min = 1280 − 180 = 1100 meters, which is greater than 1000 meters. Answer: Yes.

Bunnel, the statement 3 "The range of depths among the five caves is greater than 1000 meters." is telling us that the range of depthS among the five... is the range between each one of them is greater than 1000m, isn't?
I got it that none of them has a depth range greater than 1000m between each one. However, the plural of depth gives this meaning to this statement. Please, could you clarify it for me?
Thanks!
