Answer 1

The correct option is A Plot 1

Let's convert the fraction $\frac{1}{2}$ in the given table into equivalent fraction with denominator 4.

$\frac{1}{2}$ $\text{=}\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{2}{2}\text{=}\frac{2}{4}$

The new table will be:



Plotting the given data on a line plot, we get:


Hence, the correct line plot for the given data is plot 1.
