Scientific Method

Usually when a cop pulls you over for not having the correct amount of license plates, they let you off with a warning. However, you can be fined about $100-$200.

How does the number of license plates on each car vary from mall to mall?


The Kenwood mall will have more cars with two license plates.
If we collect data from each mall then Kenwood will have more cars with two license plates.

Each of us are going to collect data from a different mall. Olivia will go to Kenwood mall. Rylan will go to Tri County mall. Savana and Autym will go to the Dayton Mall. We will record how many cars have one license plate and how have two.

Kenwood Mall:
At the Kenwood Mall Olivia found that out of 110 cars, 42 cars had only one license plate and 68 cars had two license plates.

Tri-County Mall:
At the Tri-County Mall Rylan found that out of 110 cars, 44 cars had only one license plate and 66 cars had two license plates.

Dayton Mall:
At the Dayton Mall Savana and Autym found that out of 110 cars, 53 had only one license plate and 57 had two license plates.

In Conclusion, we discovered that Kenwood Mall had more cars with two license plates then any other mall. We also discovered that Dayton mall had the most cars with only one license plate. Lastly, all the malls had more cars with two license plates. 

Possible sources of error is that we didn't go at the same time of day and on the same day.
