After collecting the data, we realized that the data collected was not accurate. This was because each person has a different way of measuring, reading the starting and ending point differently.

On this attempt, we measured the arm freely and did not place it on a flat surface causing the readings to differ.

We also realised that we did not place the measuring tape straight while taking the measurement of the foot. We also did not standadize whether to measure the longest toe or the big toe .

After measuring, the results taken by each person was said out loud, prompting the next person who was measuring to try to obtain a similar reading causing error in data collection.
