Let's solve the problem step by step using the image you've described. The chart shows how many children in a class chose each fruit as their favorite, represented by drawings of fruits in rows corresponding to numbers from 1 to 10.
We'll go through each column and count how many times each fruit appears (i.e., how many children chose it).
---
Step 1: Count the number of children for each fruit
We look at the number of fruit drawings in each column:
#### Pears:
- Rows with pears: 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 → That’s
6 pears.
- So,
6 children like pears.
#### Apples:
- Rows with apples: 4, 3, 2, 1 → That’s
4 apples.
- So,
4 children like apples.
#### Oranges:
- Rows with oranges: 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 → That’s
10 oranges.
- So,
10 children like oranges.
#### Peaches:
- Rows with peaches: 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 → That’s
8 peaches.
- So,
8 children like peaches.
#### Bananas:
- Rows with bananas: 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 → That’s
6 bananas.
- So,
6 children like bananas.

Now we answer the questions:
---
1. Which is the most?
- Oranges have the highest count:
10
✔ Oranges
---
2. Which is the least?
- Apples have the lowest count:
4
✔ Apples
---
3. How many peaches are there?
- We counted
8 peaches.

4. There are four ____________.
- Apples are chosen by 4 children.
✔ There are four apples.
---
5. The ____________ and ____________ are equal.
- Both pears and bananas have
6 children.
✔ Pears and bananas are equal.

6. How many oranges should we take away for them to be equal to the apples?
- Oranges: 10
- Apples: 4
- To make oranges equal to apples: 10 - 4 =
6
✔ 6
---
7. How many children are in this class?
- Add up all the children:
- Pears: 6
- Apples: 4
- Oranges: 10
- Peaches: 8
- Bananas: 6
Total = 6 + 4 + 10 + 8 + 6 =
34
✔ 34 children
