Considering that X is the number of earthworms in Sample A and that Y is the number of earthworms in Sample B:
(2.4 * X + 3.8*Y) / X+Y = 3
2.4X + 3.8Y= 3X + 3Y
0.6X = 0.8Y
I)Correct, the number X must be greater than Y
II)We do not know the length of each earthworm to calculate the median, false
III)Same reason as before, false
