They want to run a ten day simulation for production rates of 50, 60, 70, and 80 muffins to determine the profit (loss) for each.They generated the following random numbers for days 1-10 respectively: 63, 13, 67, 50, 71, 25, 44, 00, 56, and 68.
a.What range of random numbers corresponds to 70 muffins sold?
