Data Inquiry Start
What counts as data?
Data are facts or observations collected to answer a question. At the post office, the team records the number of parcels sent each day.
- A parcel's recorded hue
- Number of parcels
- Parcel mass in kilograms

Choose a useful question
Tui suggests investigating how many parcels are sent on different weekdays. A good statistical question expects answers that vary and can be collected as data.
- What is the most common parcel destination?
- What is the capital city of New Zealand?
- How do you spell parcel?
- Is a parcel a type of mail?
