I think that not enough information has been given because there are only an average 4,7 13 year old students per class. how many classes where surveyed? What grades where the stats taken from? how many schools did the survey extend to? i don't think enough information has been given to make a proper statistical observation on how many 13 year olds are in a class in different countries!
