1 answer

Micah's conclusion is not necessarily correct. While 30 out of 60 college students (50%) reported being able to drive, only 15 out of 30 high school students (50%) could also drive. Both groups have the same driving percentage, so being in college does not imply a higher likelihood of being able to drive. Additional data or analysis would be needed to support or refute the conclusion.
