Objectives of the Study<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"color: black\">\u2022 To analyze customer ratings of selected fast fashion brands.<br \/>\u2022 To compare average ratings of Zara, H&amp;M, Shein, and Forever 21.<br \/>\u2022 To examine whether a significant difference exists among brand ratings using one-way ANOVA.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: black\">3. Data Collection<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"color: black\">The data for this study were collected through customer ratings on a scale of 1 to 10 for four major fast fashion brands.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: black\">4.
