Answer 1

Explanation:

We use averages because they are useful for comparing differing quantities of the same category. For example, to compute the per capita income of a country, averages have to be used because there are differences in the incomes of diverse people. However, there are limitations to the use of averages.

Answer 2

HEYA MATE HERE U GO.

We use average because they are useful for comparing different quantities of the same category.

e.g: to compute the per capita income of a country , averages have to be used because there are differences in the incomes of diverse people.

LIMITATION : Even though they are useful for comparison , they may also hide disparities .

e.g: The infant morality rate of a country does not differentiate between the male and female infants born in the country. Such an average tells us nothing about wether the number of children dying before the age of one are mostly boys or girls.

HOPE THIS WILL HELP U.
