A recent study sought to determine if exercising after studying for an exam may help retain information. The 150 student volunte
ers that participated in the study were randomly assigned to three groups. All students were given a picture memory task that they studied for 15 minutes. After studying, one of the groups was instructed to exercise for 30 minutes immediately after studying. A second group was instructed to wait 1 hour after studying and then exercise for 30 minutes. The third group was instructed to not exercise after studying. The next day all 150 student volunteers were given a test to determine how well they could remember what they studied. Here are the results:
The scale is 8m for every 2 in and the actual area is 144m2 so we need to covert that into inches. You divide 144 by 8 which = 18 and then multiply 18 x 2 which is equal to 36.
