The Beef Taco Dilemma
This is a problem that I wrote for my statistics class. The objectives for this problem are as follows: 1. Compute percentages. 2. Compute the arithmetic mean. 3. Critically think about whether or not Joe had enough tacos to meet the 'average' demand. What I found was some students had a hard time computing the percentages and some also had a hard time keeping straight how many beef and how many chicken tacos Joe ordered on each day.
