Tyler wonders what proportion of students at his school would dye their hair blue if their parents would let them. He surveyed a random sample of 10 students at his school, and 2 of them said they would. Kiran didn’t think Tyler’s estimate was very accurate, so he surveyed a random sample of 100 students, and 17 of them said they would.

Based on Tyler's sample, estimate what proportion of the students would dye their hair blue.(Round to the nearest hundreth.)

The science teacher gives daily homework. For a random sample of days throughout the year, the median number of problems is 5 and the IQR is 2. The Spanish teacher also gives daily homework. For a random sample of days throughout the year, the median number of problems is 10 and the IQR is 1.

If you estimate the median number of science homework problems to be 5 and the median number of Spanish problems to be 10, which is more likely to be accurate?
