Question: Look at the following examples of a data sheet for a particular model of washing machine. Pick out two examples of quantitative data and two examples of qualitative data about the machine.

Quantitative.

•       “Energy consumption 135kw h/annum, based on 220 standard washing cycles for cotton programmes at 60c and 40c at full and partial load, and the consumption of the low-power modes. Actual energy consumption will depend on how the appliance is used.”
  
•       “Water consumption 9460 1/annum, based on 220 standard washing cycles for cotton programs at 60c and 40c at full and partial load. Actual water consumption will depend on how the appliance is used.”
  

Qualitative.

•        “Free-standing”
  
•        “Trade Mark – Bosch.”
