If researchers wanted to do a study that required them to analyze income per household and average age of people living in the house, they would likely do what kind of research? a. quantitative b. qualitative c. interviews d. participant observation e. ethnography

Answer: a. quantitative

Explanation:

Quantitative Research aims to gather numerical data on which statistical functions such as mean, mode and other more complex calculations can be carried out. Here, the research will gather numerical data, so it is quantitative.

Qualitative Research on the other hand uses/gathers non-numerical data, usually through interviews.

An interview is a method adopted in research, and involves a back and forth conversation between the researcher and the target audience.
