\(\boxed{\text{Final Answer: The range of the data is 48 grams.}}\)

Steps

Step 1 :Find the maximum and minimum values in the dataset: \(\text{data} = [13, 1, 4, 17, 49, 6, 3, 6, 35, 39, 48]\), \(\text{max_value} = 49\), \(\text{min_value} = 1\)

Step 2 :Calculate the range: \(\text{range_value} = \text{max_value} - \text{min_value} = 49 - 1 = 48\)

Step 3 :\(\boxed{\text{Final Answer: The range of the data is 48 grams.}}\)
