During April, an average of 318 people in Town A were unemployed and 7,901 people in Town B were unemployed. A newspaper article used this statistic to conclude that the rate of employment was much better in Town A than in Town B.
Explain why the statistic could be misleading.
A.The difference between 318 and 7,901 is not great enough to make this conclusion.
B. The locations of Town A and Town B are unknown.
C. The population of each town is not known. If the population of Town A is significantly smaller than that of Town B, the conclusion does not hold.
D.The number of unemployed people changes daily.
