Answer: Statistical Question:

What is the number of days my friends spend at camp every summer?

How many miles do the teachers at our school drive per year?

What is the number of hours sixth graders spend playing sports each week?

Not a Statistical Question:

How tall is the Eiffel Tower?

What is the distance from my school to the fire station?

The questions "How tall is the Eiffel Tower?" and "What is the distance from my school to the fire station?" are not statistical questions because they are asking for a single, specific value, rather than a range of values or a pattern among a group of data.

On the other hand, "What is the number of days my friends spend at camp every summer?", "How many miles do the teachers at our school drive per year?" and "What is the number of hours sixth graders spend playing sports each week?" are statistical questions because they are asking for a range of values or a pattern among a group of data.
