The Chocolate Bar Graph!
J By Chelsea J
I
asked the people in my class, “What is your favorite kind of chocolate?” This bar graph includes
information on dark chocolate, white chocolate, and milk chocolate. I made a bar graph using this data that I
collected.
Dark chocolate had four votes out of the
twenty-one kids in my class. White
chocolate had three votes, and milk chocolate had fifteen votes. More than half of my class voted for milk
chocolate. One more person voted for
dark chocolate than white chocolate.
Twelve more kids voted for milk chocolate than white chocolate. Eleven more kids voted for milk chocolate
than dark chocolate. Milk chocolate was
most popular among my classmates.
This bar graph was helpful when I
compared the data that I collected. I
was able to find out how many people out of twenty-one kids liked the different
kinds of chocolate. The bar graph made
it easy for me to see and think about the data. If I ever buy chocolate for the class I will buy mostly milk
chocolate!
