Our Math Challenge Results for Mrs. Lindberg's Class



Mrs. Lindberg's class challenged us to create bar graphs by collecting data on our favorite sport: soccer, volleyball, football or basketball. Our class gathered the data shown in the picture to the left. Soccer (10), volleyball (10), football (5), and basketball (1).



We then began to create our bar graphs which included the following items: title, scale, labels, and data.




When our graphs were complete, we answered the following questions:
1. How many people voted in all?
26 students voted in all.
2. Which sport was the favorite?
Soccer and volleyball tied at 10 each.
3. How many people like soccer and football all together?
15 people liked soccer and football in all.
4. How many more people liked football than baseball?
4 more people liked football than baseball
5. Based on the results of the graph, what did you learn?
I learned that soccer and volleyball got voted more than football and baseball.


We really enjoyed our math challenge and look forward to the next one. Please post a comment with any questions! :)
