It looks like the statement might be incomplete or missing specific numbers or plots for comparison. However, based on your description, here is a guideline on how you could approach the comparisons if the data were available:

  1. Identify the Plots: First, you would need to look at the plots for both age groups (8-12 years and 13-17 years).

  2. Locate the Average Texts: Determine the average or median number of texts sent per day for both age groups from the plots.

  3. Compare the Values:

    • If the average for the 13- to 17-year-olds is significantly higher than that of the 8- to 12-year-olds, you could say something like: "A typical 13- to 17-year-old texts more than a typical 8- to 12-year-old."
    • Conversely, if the average for the younger group is higher, you could say: "A typical 8- to 12-year-old texts more than a typical 13- to 17-year-old."
  4. Percentage Increase/Decrease: If applicable, you might also want to include how much more or less one group texts compared to the other in percentage terms.

If you provide the specific data points or descriptions of the plots, I can help you with a more precise comparison!
