Sebastian Daugherty · Answer 2

Set two contains an outlier, which is 100

The measure of spread that was most impacted by the outlier is the range

This is because in set two, the median, both quartile and the interquartile range are all closely grouped together but the range is 93, which is far far away from any of those other values
