For each question, decide: is it statistical or non-statistical?

"How many hours per night do 6th graders in this school typically sleep?" Is this statistical or non-statistical?

Non-statistical — sleep time is the same for everyone.

Statistical — different students sleep different amounts.

Non-statistical — it asks for a typical value, which is a single number.
