Practice Problems
Try them, get help one step at a time, then print how it went.
Practice: compare and write
Choose the statistics that fit the shape, compare centers and spreads, fill the sentence frame, and compare with the model answer. Hint gives a nudge, Show next step shows one worked step at a time, Reveal answer checks, and Hide help / start over clears the card.
My results
Finished the practice? Print a page that shows each question, what you typed or chose, the correct answer, and how it went. Good for showing a teacher or keeping in a folder.

On paper or an index card. Use the math word and the plain-English word.
- What are the five steps for comparing groups?
- Two classes have means 83.3 and 83, medians 87.5 and 83, IQRs 12.5 and 5. The first is skewed with an outlier. Which scored higher, and which was more consistent?
- Why not just compare the means?
- Each list is a whole class. Sigma or s?
Check your exit ticket
- Same scale; shape; statistics that fit (same kind for both); compare centers and spreads; sentences in context.
- 1st period scored higher by the median; 4th period was more consistent by the IQR.
- 1st period's mean was pulled down by the outlier 34; the median fits a skewed shape.
- Sigma.
