If a speaker presents statistics to impress the audience but does not state their source or basis, what is the main problem?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: It will be difficult to verify the credibility of the statistics.
Statistics need context such as their source, date, population, sample, or method before listeners can judge their reliability. Without that basis, impressive-looking numbers cannot be checked properly. Their use does not automatically improve voice clarity or guarantee that the audience understands the subject.
