a The lower bound of the range is the ratio of the difference of the P10 value of the baseline gasoline and the P90 value of each pathway to the P10 value of gasoline. The upper bound of the range is the ratio of the difference of the P90 value of gasoline and the P10 value of each pathway to the P90 value of gasoline.
