The following set of data was obtained 6 4 3 1 2 2 3 1 4 1 2 5 3 4 5 2 2 3 3 1 2 2 3 1 4 2 Construct a frequency table and draw a Histogram illustrating the results. (C) How many teachers responded to the survey? (D) What the longest number of hours and most common number of hours are spent?
A) A pictogram is a graphical representation of data that uses pictures or symbols to represent quantities or categories. For example, a pictogram might use images of apples to represent the number of apples sold in a certain time period. A histogram, on the other hand, is a graphical representation of data that uses bars to represent the frequency of data in certain ranges or bins. For example, a histogram might show the frequency of test scores in different ranges.
