What are some examples of statistics?
A statistic is a number that represents a property of the sample. For example, if we consider one math class to be a sample of the population of all math classes, then the average number of points earned by students in that one math class at the end of the term is an example of a statistic.
Which questions are statistical questions?
The purpose of this task is to help students learn to distinguish between statistical questions and questions that are not statistical. A statistical question is one that can be answered by collecting data and where there will be variability in that data. This is different from a question that anticipates a deterministic answer. For example, “How many minutes do 6th grade students typically spend on homework each week?” is a statistical question.
What are some statistical questions?

Which question is a statistical question?
A statistical question is a question that can be answered by collecting data that vary . For example, “How old am I?” is not a statistical question, but “How old are the students in my school?” is a statistical question. This is because to answer the second question, you would need to determine the ages of all students in your school
What is an example of a statistical question?
– How many days are in March? – How old is your dog? – On average, how old are the dogs that live on this street? – What proportion of the students at your school like watermelons? – Do you like watermelons? – How many bricks are in this wall? – What was the temperature at noon today at City Hall?
