Question

How many fruit trees are planted in a orchard is a question, whereas what is the most frequent tree planted in a orchard is a question.

• A. statistical
• B. non-statistical
• C. variation
• D. non-numerical

Answer 1

Answer: (A), (B)

non-statistical

We know that answering a statistical question involves analyzing a data set, whereas non-statistical questions do not involve any analysis.

Here, just counting the fruit trees planted in the orchard answers the first question.

$\therefore$ It is a non-statistical question.

But, to answer which tree is planted most frequently, we need to collect the number of individual varieties of trees planted, and finally need to analyze which variety is available the most.

Hence, the second question is a statistical question.
