5x50 = 45x4 + x
x = 70
Hence range is 70-45=25

Answer is B

OA:

The answer 25 doesn't refer to a temperature, but rather to a range of temperatures.

The average of the 5 temps is: (a + b + c + d + e) / 5 = 50
One of these temps is 45: (a + b + c + d + 45) / 5 = 50
Solving for the variables: a + b + c + d = 205
In order to find the greatest range of temps, we minimize all temps but one. Remember, though, that 45 is the lowest temp possible, so: 45 + 45 + 45 + d = 205
Solving for the variable: d = 70
70 - 45 = 25
