Maths Driving Test
Intro:
The data used for my coursework was on driving tests. The information is in table form. The table ahs 6 headings;
"¨Gender
"¨Number of 1 hour lessons
"¨Number of minor mistakes
"¨Instructor
"¨Day
"¨Time
From this spreadsheet I was able to find the average Number of 1-hour lessons and average number of minor mistakes.
The formulas used where:
=AVERAGE(B3:B74) This was used for Average number of hour lessons
=SUM(C3:C242)/227

formulas.
34 + 1 = 35 = 17.5th result
2 2 Median = 22.25
Inter-quartile range = Upper quartile = 3n/4 = 3*34/4 = 25.5th
= 28.5
= Lower quartile = n+1/4 = 35/4 = 8.75th
= 13.5
= Upper quartile - lower quartile
= 28.5 - 13.5
Inter-quartile range = 15
Mode is 15-20, 20-25, 25-30 and 30-35
When I compare these 2 sets of results I found out that my hypothesis is correct in saying that males make fewer mistakes than females as their median is lower and so is the inter-quartile range so this indicates that the males make fewer mistakes in general.
