Assertion (A) and Reason (R).

There are two statements marked as Assertion (A) and Reason (R). Read the statements and choose
the appropriate option from the options given below:
(a) Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of
Assertion (A)

Assertion (A)
(c) Assertion (A) is false, but Reason (R) is true
(d) Both are false

Assertion (A): Classification of data is required for further statistical analysis.


Reason (R) : Classification helps in simplifying data and enhances understanding.

Assertion (A): Classification of data using time dimensions has more accuracy as compare to
other forms of classification.
Reason (R): Data can be presented, once it is classified as per the need of investigation.
