Question

Maria kept a log of the number of miles she jogged each time she went for a run as she trained for an upcoming marathon. She displayed the logged runs in the histogram below.

A histogram titled Maria's Monthly Jogging has miles run on the x-axis and number of runs on the y-axis. 1 to 1.99 miles is 2 runs; 2 to 2.99 miles is 5 runs; 3 to 3.99 miles is 5 runs; 4 to 4.99 miles is 3 runs; 5 to 5.99 miles is 4 runs; 6 to 6.99 miles is 7 runs; 7 to 7.99 miles is 4 runs.

What is the range of the number of miles Maria jogged?
0 to 7
0 to 7.99
1 to 7.99
1 to 8

Answer 1

1 to 7.99 miles

Explanation:

According to the given histogram, Maria logged runs for 1 to 7.99 miles, and the number of runs for each mile range is also given. Therefore, the range of the number of miles Maria jogged is 1 to 7.99 miles.

Note that the histogram shows that there were no recorded runs for exactly 8 miles, so the range does not include 8.
