Data mining involves analyzing observational data sets to turn raw data into useful information and summarize the data in ways that are both understandable and useful to the data owner.

Skylar Wiggins · Answer 2

A) analyzing large amounts of data, such as employee pay and performance

Explanation:

The main function of data mining is to analyze large amounts of data and turn them into useful information. Latoya could use data mining to analyze employees' wages, traits, skills, performance, etc.

Large amounts of data without any type of order or sense, is useless, data mining is used to give some sense and discover patterns and trends within that information.
