__Problem 2:Kind of Pets Students Have__ Part A-Excel Spreadsheet



Part B-Clustered Column Graph

Part C Page DAU 28 Questions 16 and 17

16 Type a paragraph about pets using the information above

The mode is fishes, they must be pretty popular. Cats and dogs are next in line. The range is 2-303 and there were 841 students observed. Rabbits, snakes, gerbils and turtles aren't very beloved.

17 Look at the information and guess how many students were observed. Please explain why.

I think around 550 students were observed. I thought of the typical amount of a pet per person and divided the frequency of kind of pet by that number. For example most people have 2 hamsters and the frequency of hamsters was 32 so 16 students owned hamsters. I did that for each pet and added my total up and ended with 550.
