I'll solve this step by step by analyzing the bar graph of pets.
First, I need to understand what the graph is showing. It's a bar graph displaying the number of different types of pets that belong to students in Miss Smith's class. The vertical axis shows the count (from 0 to 8), and the horizontal axis shows the types of pets: Dogs, Cats, Fish, and Birds.
Let me examine each bar to determine the number of each type of pet:
1. For Dogs: The bar reaches up to 6 on the y-axis.
2. For Cats: The bar reaches up to 4 on the y-axis.
3. For Fish: The bar reaches up to 7 on the y-axis.
4. For Birds: The bar reaches up to 2 on the y-axis.
Now I can answer each question:
1. How many dogs do the students have? - 6 dogs
2. How many birds do they have? - 2 birds
3. How many cats do they have? - 4 cats
4. How many fish do they have? - 7 fish
5. Do they have more fish or cats? - They have 7 fish and 4 cats, so they have more fish.
The solution is complete. The students have 6 dogs, 2 birds, 4 cats, and 7 fish. They have more fish than cats.
