Let’s solve this step by step.
We are given a tally chart for favorite sports:
-
Football: |||| |||| |||| → That’s 3 groups of 5 =
15
-
Rugby: |||| |||| |||| ||| → 3 groups of 5 + 3 =
18
-
Volleyball: |||| |||| ||| → 2 groups of 5 + 3 =
13
-
Tennis: |||| |||| |||| |||| → 4 groups of 5 =
20
Now let’s answer each question.
---
Question 1: Complete the data table.
We already have Football = 15.
So:
- Rugby = 18
- Volleyball = 13
- Tennis = 20
Table becomes:
| Football | Rugby | Volleyball | Tennis |
|----------|-------|------------|--------|
| 15 | 18 | 13 | 20 |
---
Question 2: How many kids like rugby the most?
From above, Rugby =
18
---
Question 3: How many kids like football and tennis the most?
Add Football (15) + Tennis (20) =
35
---
Question 4: How many more kids liked tennis than rugby?
Tennis = 20, Rugby = 18
20 - 18 =
2
---
Question 5: How many kids were asked about their favorite sport?
Add all together:
Football (15) + Rugby (18) + Volleyball (13) + Tennis (20)
= 15 + 18 = 33; 33 + 13 = 46; 46 + 20 =
66

Final Answer:
1) Rugby: 18, Volleyball: 13, Tennis: 20
2) 18
3) 35
4) 2
5) 66
