Module 6

Represent and interpret data.

MGSE3.MD.3 Draw a scaled picture graph and a scaled bar graph to represent a data set with several categories. Solve one- and two-step “how many more” and “how many less” problems using information presented in scaled bar graphs. For example, draw a bar graph in which each square in the bar graph might represent 5 pets.

Common phrases used when asking questions about data:

    • how many more...
    • how many less...
    • at least... (that number or more)
      • ex: at least 5 (means 5+)
    • less than...
    • at most... (that number or less)

MGSE3.MD.4 Generate measurement data by measuring lengths using rulers marked with halves and fourths of an inch. Show the data by making a line plot, where the horizontal scale is marked off in appropriate units— whole numbers, halves, or quarters.
