Coach Smith is starting an after school archery club for this class. On the first day she had students shoot at a target 20 times. She then wrote each person’s accuracy on a card that she then gave to each student. Now, she wants to split up the class into four equal groups of similar skill. How can she determine who is in each group?
What is the minimum amount of people who should be in each group? • What should be the range in skill level for each of the four groups? • What should be the first step we should do as a class to organize the data in order to split up the groups?
Find the Ranges • Two ranges that represent 25% of the total class • Two ranges that represent 50% of the total class • Two ranges that represent 75% of the total class
