Alan Smith reported amazing statistics of adult numeracy:
2011 England Survey: 49 of 100 adults lacked of numeracy Level 1 skills (fractions, percentage, and decimals). The figure is only shocking for 51% of population.
OECD reported (PIAACX2012) that forty percent of USA young people aged 16-19 were below Level 2.
This is statistics. Statistics is a part of mathematics and it is about us as a group.
There are two categories of people who can and who cannot do numbers.
