Sure! Let’s solve the “Bar Graph Worksheet” step by step.
---
Step 1: Understand the Data
We are given a table of game scores for four friends:
| Name | Points |
|--------|--------|
| Olivia | 10 |
| James | 8 |
| Liam | 12 |
| Nora | 6 |
---
Step 2: Create the Bar Graph (Conceptually)
Even though we can’t draw it here, you would:
- Label the x-axis with the names: Olivia, James, Liam, Nora.
- Label the y-axis from 0 to 12 (since the highest score is 12).
- Draw bars:
- Olivia → height = 10
- James → height = 8
- Liam → height = 12
- Nora → height = 6

Step 3: Answer the Questions
####
1. Who got the highest points?
Look at the scores:
Olivia = 10, James = 8, Liam = 12, Nora = 6
→
Liam has the highest score (12).
✔ Answer: Liam

####
2. How many points did James and Nora get?
James = 8, Nora = 6
Total = 8 + 6 =
14
✔ Answer: 14
---
####
3. How many less points did Olivia get than Liam?
Olivia = 10, Liam = 12
Difference = 12 – 10 =
2
✔ Answer: 2
---
####
4. How many more points did James get than Nora?
James = 8, Nora = 6
Difference = 8 – 6 =
2
✔ Answer: 2

####
5. Two kids got a total of 16 points. Who were they?
Check all pairs:
- Olivia + James = 10 + 8 = 18
✘
- Olivia + Liam = 10 + 12 = 22
✘
- Olivia + Nora = 10 + 6 = 16
✔
- James + Liam = 8 + 12 = 20
✘
- James + Nora = 8 + 6 = 14
✘
- Liam + Nora = 12 + 6 = 18
✘
Only
Olivia and Nora add up to 16.
✔ Answer: Olivia and Nora
---
####
6. Who got a score higher than Nora but less than Olivia?
Nora = 6, Olivia = 10
So we want someone with a score > 6 and < 10 → that’s
7, 8, or 9
Looking at the scores:
- James = 8 → fits! (8 > 6 and 8 < 10)
- Liam = 12 → too high
- Olivia = 10 → not less than Olivia
- Nora = 6 → not higher than Nora
✔ Answer: James
