students in 7th grade took a standardized math test that they also had taken in 5th grade. the collected data showed that in two years the median increased by three points, and the mean increased by around two and a half points. In terms of the context,
that proves that there is overall improvement in the grades of students.but there is a small difference between mean increase and median increase.
While median increased 3 points, mean increased only by 2.5 points. This implies there exists unusually low level iq students who had unusually low score thus affecting mean to be low.special training should be given to those students.
0.248 rounded to the nearest tenth is 0.2 because 4 comes after and if there is a number after the number that you are rounding that is less than 5, you keep the number and do not change it.
