Dillon asked nine boys in Ms. Barstow's class how many minutes a day they spend doing homework. Here are the results of his survey:
20 15 50 45 40 50 40 50 30
Dillon concluded: The typical fifth grader spends about 40 minutes a night doing homework. Do you agree with his conclusion? Explain.
No. You cannot conclude something about a "typical fifth grader" based on such a small survey of only 9 BOYS in one class at one school in one state.
