standard_description: Summarize numerical data sets in relation to their context, such as by:
- Reporting the number of observations.
- Describing the nature of the attribute under investigation, including how it was measured and its units of measurement.
- Relating the choice of measures of center and variability to the shape of the data distribution and the context in which the data were gathered.
- Giving quantitative measures of center (median and/or mean) and variability (interquartile range and/or mean absolute deviation), as well as describing any overall pattern and any striking deviations from the overall pattern with reference to the context in which the data were gathered.
problem_activity: Tram knows that
$$1\frac{1}{6}$$
is less than
$$1\frac{2}{3}$$
. He wonders if this means that
$$-1\frac{1}{6}$$
is also less than
$$-1\frac{2}{3}$$
.
Help Tram determine and understand the correct order of
$$-1\frac{1}{6}$$
and
$$-1\frac{2}{3}$$
, from least to greatest.
