Generally, when we talk about statistic, we are talking about the characteristic of a sample. A statistic can be said to be a value which is calculated or computed from the values in a sample.
By applying mathematical functions in this case addition and division to the values present in the sample, we have what is now known as statistic.
First, we need to find the unit rate of each animal (how many feet each animal can fly in a second). We do this by dividing the number of feet flown by the number of time.
Bat: 232/4 = 58 ft per second Hummingbird: 343/7 = 49 ft per second
Based off of this information, we can conclude that the bat can fly faster than the hummingbird.
