data. It helps to organize it in a way that makes it understandable. An example would be: A personality test on 1000 college students that measures how out going they are. There are two ways that the results can be put together. A numerical graph computes the mean and standard deviation by showing the average degree of outgoingness and the degree in which they are all different. Graphs such as the stem and leaf display and a box plot would show detailed information about those studied and the scores

This error may occur if the consortium defends any lawsuit against them if they are using 6% (6/100) as their surveying result.
