We found the average standard deviation of these measurements and made scatter plot showing humerus length against femur length and a bar graph to represent the femur to humerus length ratios of the

differences between the data does make sense. Data at this level does not have a starting point. The fourth and highest level of measurement is the ratio level. Data at the ratio level possess all of the features of the interval level, in addition to a zero value. At the ratio level of measurement, not only can sums and differences be calculated, but also ratios. One measurement can be divided by any nonzero measurement, and a meaningful number will be the end result. Two examples of how statistics was/is

of qualitative data and does not involve numeric data. Four Scale Levels In order to appropriately summarize and analyze data, we need to be able to differentiate between measuring scales. There are four scales-nominal, ordinal, interval, and ratio. First, the nominal scale is considered the least sophisticated and is used to categorize or group data by name or label. When using the ordinal scale we are able to categorize and rank the data. To me this is an easier scale to remember as ordinal
