Question

When bananas ripen, they go from green to yellow to brown. They taste best when they are yellow.

A company sells a special bag that is used to store bananas. They claim that if you store your bananas in this bag, the bananas will stay fresh longer.

Aubrey bought five of these bags to test them. She got 10 bananas that were all the same. She placed a banana in each bag, and she left five bananas on the kitchen table. Then she kept track of how ripe the bananas were. She recorded the day when each of the bananas turned too brown to eat.

Of the five in the bags, they lasted 4, 5, 4, 4, and 6 days. Of the five left on the counter, they lasted 3, 3, 2, 3, and 4 days.


What are the data recorded in this experiment?

Answer 1

The data recorded in this experiment are the number of days it took for the bananas to turn too brown to eat. Specifically:

For the bananas stored in the bags, the days were: 4, 5, 4, 4, and 6 days.
For the bananas left on the counter, the days were: 3, 3, 2, 3, and 4 days.

These values represent the number of days each banana lasted before becoming too ripe to eat.
