As we know quantitative data aims only to <u>seek answers in terms of quantity</u>, studies conducted with the use of quantitative data may only find information on the appearance of things such as the <u>number, percentage, amount, etc.</u>
Unlike qualitative data, quantitative data seeks to answer <u>'how much' and how many' instead of 'why' and 'what'</u>. For example, a quantitative data will try to answer the number of students who are interested in geography rather than why they are interested in geography.
However, for a purposeful and in-depth research data, both quantitative and qualitative data should be accumulated together.
The declarative knowledge is the knowledge that is about the facts and things and procedural is about the knowledge about how to perform the certain cognitive activity such as the reasoning and decision making.
