The most relevant response for why the information on the chart would be evaluated for reliability is:
North Korea's literacy rate is so high yet its GDP per capita is so low.
This statement raises a discrepancy between the literacy rate and GDP per capita for North Korea, suggesting that the data may be inconsistent or requires further examination to assess its reliability. Such contradictions in data points can indicate potential issues with how the information was collected or reported.
Yes, that response is correct. The discrepancy between North Korea's high literacy rate and low GDP per capita suggests a potential inconsistency or issue with the reliability of the data. Evaluating such anomalies is critical when assessing the accuracy and trustworthiness of information presented in charts or data sets. If these two metrics do not align logically, it prompts a closer examination of the underlying data sources and methodologies used to gather the information.
