Explanation:

Step1: Analyze Spread of Each Dot Plot

• Catherine: Her dot plot has dots from 0 to 12 (extreme values at 0 and 12) and spread across more values, so wider spread.
• Amy: Her data is clustered between 0 - 8, less spread than Catherine.
• Herb: His data is clustered between 2 - 10, most concentrated (least spread).

Step2: Order from Most to Least Spread

Most spread out: Catherine (spread from 0 to 12, more dispersed).
Middle: Amy (spread from 0 to 8, less than Catherine).
Least spread out: Herb (spread from 2 to 10, most clustered).

Answer:

Most spread out: Catherine
Middle: Amy
Least spread out: Herb

(Order: Catherine, Amy, Herb)
