Question

3. 'Universal' in Statistics means: a) All Celestial bodies b) people living on the earth b) people or thing about which we are conducting a study or survey d) All of these ​

Answer 1

Universal denotes all the people living on the earth.

Explanation:

• Statistics can be defined as the numerical study or records of any data.
• While talking about statistics, the term universal is used to denote all the people or a thing that is present on the earth.
• Statistics is universal as in economic terms statistics is only limited to the data and organisms on earth.
• It does not extend to the celestial bodies as they do not live on the earth.
• Therefore B, people living on the earth is the right answer.
