A line graph shows the visitors to a park in the first six months of a year: January 120, February 150, March 140, April 210, May 260 and June 300.
- Which month had the most visitors?
- By how many did the visitors rise from January to June?
- In which month did the number fall, and by how much?
Need a reminder? The key ideaShow
A histogram shows numbers put in groups of equal width. The bars touch, and the height of a bar is the number of values in its group. A line graph joins values over time.
The worked solution
Have you tried it?
Work it out on paper first. It is fine to get stuck or make a mistake: that is how we learn. When you are ready, go through the solution one step at a time, and check each step against your own.
Step 1. The most. June, with visitors.
Step 2. The rise. visitors.
Step 3. The fall. From February to March: visitors. Every other month rose.
Answer: June; visitors; March, by visitors.
