    D. Range

    The data shows that the range for set one is 11 and the range for set 2 is 54, while the other measures are pretty close to each other (19 and 19.5 are only. 5 off). Therefore, you can see that the range was affected the most. This is because since you now have a higher maximum to subtract the minimum from, the range will be higher. Think of it like this - the difference of 63 and 9 is much greater than the difference of 20 and 9.
