Line Plots

A line plot is a graph that shows the frequency of data along a number line.

You read a line plot by looking at the marks above each number to see how many times that number appears.

Each mark on a line plot represents one occurrence of a data value.

Add up all the marks above each number on the line plot.

The mode is the number that appears most frequently in a data set.

The mode is the value with the highest number of marks above it on the line plot.

The range is the difference between the highest and lowest values in a data set.

Subtract the smallest number from the largest number represented on the line plot.

A data value is a specific number or measurement that is collected in a data set.

It means that no data points have that value.
