World Statistics Day

World Statistics Day is a day that is celebrated every October 20th. It is a day to celebrate the importance of statistics and the many ways that statistics is used in our everyday lives. Statistics are used for finding trends, understanding problems better, and helping to create solutions. For example, when we look at the number of people who don’t have enough to eat, this is a statistic. When we look at how much we are spending on healthcare, this is a statistic. Statistics help us better understand the world around us, and this is why World Statistics Day is so important!
