What is data?
Data is information we collect, like the favourite colours of our classmates. We can record it with tally marks, put it in a table, and show it as a pictograph or a bar graph.
A train 🚂 station counts how many people travel each day and shows it on a bar graph!
Ways to show data
| Way | Looks like | Example |
|---|---|---|
| ✏️ tally marks | lines in 5s | 5 groups and 1 line = 26 |
| 📊 table | rows and columns | Kho-kho 6 |
| 🖼️ pictograph | pictures and a key | 1 picture = 3 |
| 📈 bar graph | bars | taller = more |
How to answer questions from data
- Read the title and the key.
- Find the most and the least.
- Add to find how many in all.
- Subtract to find how many more.
