Understanding the Picture Graph
Each symbol represents
one child. We count how many symbols are in each row to find out how many children used each mode of transportation.
---
Step 1: Count the Symbols
####
Walk
- There are
7 walking figures.
✔ So,
7 children walked to school.
####
Car
- There are
6 car symbols.
✔ So,
6 children came by car.
####
Bike
- There are
4 bike symbols.
✔ So,
4 children came by bike.
####
Bus
- There are
3 bus symbols.
✔ So,
3 children came by bus.

Now let’s answer the questions:
---
1) How many children walked to school?
👉
7

2) How many children came by bike?
👉
4
---
3) How many children came by car?
👉
6
---
4) How many children came on the school bus?
👉
3
---
5) How many children did not walk?
We need to add up all the children who didn’t walk:
- Car: 6
- Bike: 4
- Bus: 3
Total = 6 + 4 + 3 =
13
✔ So,
13 children did not walk.

6) How did most children come to school that day?
Let’s compare the totals:
- Walk: 7
- Car: 6
- Bike: 4
- Bus: 3
The highest number is
7, which is
walking.
✔ So,
most children walked to school.
