Question
nancy and hiyang are training for a race. they entered some of their training notes in a chart.
training notes
| day | nancys distance run | hiyangs distance run |
| monday | 2 | 5 |
| tuesday | 3 | 5 |
| wednesday | 3 | 7 |
| thursday | 4 | 8 |
| friday | 5 | 10 |
which information should be added to the chart in order find out who ran a greater distance?
- the time spent running each day
- the reference point used each day
- the units used to measure distance each day
- the location used by the runners each day
To compare the distances run by Nancy and Hiyang, we need to know the units of the distance values. Without units, we can't tell if the numbers represent miles, kilometers, etc. and thus can't accurately determine who ran a greater distance. Time, reference - point, and location are not relevant for simply comparing the magnitudes of the distances run.
