3 Mindy makes a tally chart to show the
shirt colors of her classmates. She wants to
display the data. Which of the following is an
appropriate representation for Mindy to use?
A Bar graph
B Stem-and-leaf plot
C Both A and B
D Not here

Mindy can use a bar graph to visually represent the shirt colors of her classmates, as it makes it easy to compare the frequency of each color at a glance. Each color can be represented by a different bar, with the height indicating how many classmates are wearing that color—fun and effective!

Alternatively, a stem-and-leaf plot could also serve her well, especially for showing the distribution of colors in a more detailed manner. The “stem” can represent the main categories (like colors), while the “leaves” can reflect different shades or patterns. It offers a unique way to visualize data while maintaining the original numbers!
