Description
This unit describes the skills and knowledge to extract, interpret, comprehend, use problem-solving strategies and convey statistical information in less familiar situations.

It requires the ability to make estimations, select and use mathematical processes, and reflect on and evaluate the mathematics used and the outcomes relative to real-world implications.

The required outcomes described in this unit contribute to the achievement of Australian Core Skills Framework indicators for Numeracy at Level 4: 4.09, 4.10, 4.11. At this level, individuals work independently and use support from a range of established resources.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
