Let’s solve this step by step using the bar graph.
First, look at the bars for each sport:
- Soccer: The bar goes up to 6 → 6 students chose soccer.
- Football: The bar goes up to 4 → 4 students chose football.
- Baseball or Softball: The bar goes up to 5 → 5 students chose baseball or softball.
- Basketball: The bar goes up to 3 → 3 students chose basketball.
Now answer each question:
1. How many students chose basketball as their favorite sport?
→ Look at the basketball bar — it reaches 3. So,
3 students.
2. Which sport is the most popular?
→ Compare all the numbers: Soccer = 6, Football = 4, Baseball/Softball = 5, Basketball = 3.
The highest number is 6 → that’s
Soccer.
3. How many students chose baseball or softball as their favorite sport?
→ The bar for “Baseball or Softball” reaches 5 → so,
5 students.
4. What is the title of this graph?
→ At the top of the graph, it says:
“Room 14’s Favorite Sports”
5. How many students voted in Room 14?
→ Add up all the votes:
Soccer (6) + Football (4) + Baseball/Softball (5) + Basketball (3)
= 6 + 4 = 10; 10 + 5 = 15; 15 + 3 =
18
Final Answer:
1. 3
2. Soccer
3. 5
4. Room 14’s Favorite Sports
5. 18
