3.   Sorting marks from lowest to highest is an example of which type of sorting?

                              (i)   Alphabetical order                       (ii)   Date order

                              (iii)   Numerical order                      (iv)   Random order

                    4.  Identify the option that best describes an anomaly in data.


                              (i)   A normal data trend

                              (ii)   Consistent data pattern

                              (iii)   Repeated data points

                              (iv)   A value significantly higher or lower


                 B.  Write ‘T’ for true and ‘F’ for false.

                    1.  Using data ensures that decisions are based on guesses.


                    2.   To test a survey, first try it on a small group of people to spot issues.


                    3.  A trend is the general direction in which data moves over a period of time.

                    4.  There is only one way to sort data.


                 C.  Fill in the blanks using the given hints:

                        match the normal pattern.                                                         Language
                                                                                                         Meaningful
                    3.  The process of arranging data in a specific order is called                   .

                    4.  Use clear                  and ask only one question at a time.


                 D.  Answer the following questions:

                    1.  What is a survey? Describe it.








                    2.  Define data processing.
