The following set of numbers is going to be graphed on a histogram.

3, 19, 11, 29, 4, 6, 10, 16, 2, 21, 15, 22, 13, 9, 1, 17, 2, 26, 18, 7

If there are going to be six intervals in the display, what is the length of each interval?

1.) 5
2). 6
3.) 3

Answer 1

The answer is 5.

Explanation:

Answer 2

Each interval should contain 5 values. To determine this, I looked at the lowest number and the highest number to determine the range of numbers that need to be represented. The values are from 1-29, so you would count in groups of 5 numbers. 1-5, 6-10, 11-15, 16-20, 21-25, and 26-30.
