Is statistics a solution to our problem or means to indicate problems?

Dear student, 
Statistics in itself does not solve problems. It acts as a means to measure the problem in quantitative terms. With use of statistical tools one can analyse the dept or the seriousness of the problem.
For instance, with the help of statistical tools one can get to know the exact measure of poverty in the economy. Based on the statistical results one can then frame suitable actions or policies with regard to poverty. 

Regards
