What to Focus On

  • Data means facts, numbers, measures, observations, or descriptions that give information.
  • Some questions need data collection and some do not.
  • Organising data helps in finding answers quickly.
  • Tally marks help count data neatly.
  • When five tally marks are completed, the fifth mark crosses the first four.
  • Frequency is the count of a value or observation.
  • A pictograph uses pictures or symbols to show data.
  • A key or scale must be written clearly.
  • One symbol can represent one or more units.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

A pictograph always shows exact numbers with one full symbol only.

The scale in a bar graph can start from any number, not necessarily zero.

A column graph is a different chart from a bar graph.
