Answer:
Group A, because seven children have a forearm length longer than 10 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Create the dot plots based on the given information (please see attached images).
Group A = blue dots
Group B = red dots
From inspection of the attached dot plots, we can see that Group A appears to have the longer average forearm length. This is because 7 children have a forearm length of longer than 10 inches.
To calculate the average forearm length, sum all data values and divide by the total number of data values.
Thus proving that Group A has the longer average former length.
