On the right-hand side of the table is a range of TOEFL iBT Reading scores for that number of correct answers.

Your scaled score is given as a range instead of a single number for the following reasons The estimates of scores are based on the performance of students who participated in a field study for these Reading Comprehension questions. Those students took the test on computer you used a book. Although the two experiences are comparable the differences make exact comparisons impossible.
