The following data were obtained from a sample of 12 respondents. In reviewing the above data, imagine that you first decide to calculate Pearson's correlation coefficient for the relationship between the highest grade of school completed for respondents and their fathers. If the covariance between respondents' and fathers' education is 3.23, what is the value of Pearson's correlation coefficient? Your answer should be rounded to two decimal places, like 0.42 or 0.89.
