Question

3) The following image shows the number of pairs of shoes each triathote used to train for triathlons each year many of the triathletes used 3 or fewer pairs shoes to train each year?

Answer 1

We are given a dot plot that shows the number of pairs of shoes each triathlete used to train for triathlons.

We are asked to find out how many triathletes used 3 or fewer pairs of shows to train each year?

Each dot means 1 triathlete.

So, we need to sum all the dots for 3 and less than 3 pairs of shoes.

Number of Triathlete who used 3 pairs of shows = 4

Number of Triathlete who used 2 pairs of shows = 2

Number of Triathlete who used 1 pair of shows = 1

Number of Triathlete who used 0 pairs of shows = 0

Total number of Triathlete = 4 + 2 + 1 + 0 = 7

Therefore, 7 Triathletes used 3 or fewer pairs of shoes.
