Question

Find the correct dot plot reprsentation for each group of turtles from the table given below.

Group size of turtles	Number of times each group was sighted
30	4
45	2
60	7
75	1

• A.
• B.
• C.
• D.

Answer 1

The correct option is B

To correctly represent the data on a dot plot, you need to count the number of times each group was sighted

From the table:

Group size of turtles	Number of times each group was sighted
30	4
45	2
60	7
75	1

Turtles having group size 30 was sighted 4 times. So, it should have 4 dots.

Similarly for the group size 45, 2 dots will be there.

For group size 60, 7 dots will be there.

And finally for group size 75, 1 dot should be there.

∴ The correct dot plot representation will be:


So, the option 2 will be the correct choice.
