Now lets make a Histogram!

1st Give the histogram a name. Runners vs. Laps
2nd Label the x-axis. Laps
3rd Label the y-axis. # of runners
4th Input data from table of values

A secondary 3 class did a survey of students to find

the number of minutes it takes each student to get to

school. They surveyed 40 students and recorded the
results below:
1st step: Rewrite the numbers in order
2nd step: Fill in the Time portion of the table of
values.
3rd step: Count the numbers that fall into each
category for Frequency. Example: (0, 10( = 7

Now
Take the data from the table of values and fill in the

histogram.
1st Give the histogram a name.
2nd Fill in the x-axis (Time) & y-axis (Frequency)
3rd Fill in the histogram with the data from the
table of values.
