Reply:I'm not going to write a test question answer for you, but basically:





Quantitative analysis deals with things you can count:


100 Whites were surveyed


15 Blacks


18 Latinos





Qualitative analysis deals with things that are not easily counted, but can still be observed and reported on.


For example, Let's say you do a survey where you discovered white people were afraid of ants and Latinos weren't afraid of snails but hated grasshoppers. You might need to talk to some people and figure out if/why things are the way your survey said they are. These observations would be wrapped up in your report, and would be qualitative.
Reply:No idea.





But the difference between R and are is that one is a letter and one is a word.
