INTERACTIVE WORKBOOK
Quantitative reasoning · Foundations
Check units, scale and variability.
Compare two synthetic quantities and explain whether they share a denominator. First define the key terms and unit of analysis.
Worked guidance
A sound response defines the question, states assumptions, selects evidence that fits the question and explains limitations. A complete response also includes a traceable source, a stated comparison rule and a brief limitation.
