Worksheet for students to graph hot dog sales data as a bar chart.

Let's solve this step-by-step.

Problem:

We are given a table of the number of hot dogs sold each day of the week. We need to draw a bar graph using this data, with the y-axis in dozens (i.e., groups of 12).

---

Step 1: Understand the Data

Here is the data:

| Day | # of Hot Dogs Sold |
|-----------|--------------------|
| Monday | 84 |
| Tuesday | 60 |
| Wednesday | 12 |
| Thursday | 72 |
| Friday | 36 |
| Saturday | 48 |
| Sunday | 24 |

Step 2: Convert to "Dozens"

Since the y-axis is labeled "Dozens of Hot Dogs Sold", we need to convert each number into dozens.

> Recall:
> $$
> \text{Dozens} = \frac{\text{Number of hot dogs}}{12}
> $$

Let’s calculate:

- Monday: $ 84 ÷ 12 = 7 $ dozens
- Tuesday: $ 60 ÷ 12 = 5 $ dozens
- Wednesday: $ 12 ÷ 12 = 1 $ dozen
- Thursday: $ 72 ÷ 12 = 6 $ dozens
- Friday: $ 36 ÷ 12 = 3 $ dozens
- Saturday: $ 48 ÷ 12 = 4 $ dozens
- Sunday: $ 24 ÷ 12 = 2 $ dozens

So now our data becomes:

| Day | Dozens Sold |
|-----------|-------------|
| Monday | 7 |
| Tuesday | 5 |
| Wednesday | 1 |
| Thursday | 6 |
| Friday | 3 |
| Saturday | 4 |
| Sunday | 2 |

Step 3: Draw the Bar Graph

We'll use the provided grid.

- The x-axis has days of the week.
- The y-axis goes from 0 to 9 (in dozens).
- Each bar height corresponds to the number of dozens sold that day.

#### Instructions for drawing:
1. For Monday, draw a bar up to 7 on the y-axis.
2. For Tuesday, draw a bar up to 5.
3. For Wednesday, draw a bar up to 1.
4. For Thursday, draw a bar up to 6.
5. For Friday, draw a bar up to 3.
6. For Saturday, draw a bar up to 4.
7. For Sunday, draw a bar up to 2.

Each bar should be of equal width and spaced evenly across the x-axis.

Final Answer (Summary):

✔ You would draw a bar graph where:

- X-axis: Days of the week (Mon–Sun)
- Y-axis: Dozens sold (0 to 9)
- Bar heights:
- Monday: 7
- Tuesday: 5
- Wednesday: 1
- Thursday: 6
- Friday: 3
- Saturday: 4
- Sunday: 2

This graph will visually show how many dozens of hot dogs were sold each day.

✔ Tips:

- Label the axes clearly.
- Make sure bars are consistent in width and spacing.
- Title the graph: *"Dozens of Hot Dogs Sold per Day"* (already given).
