Interpreting Data & Frequency

Interpreting Data is what people collect from a data set. A data set is the frequency of something. Frequency is the amount of something.

Some examples of a data set are tally chart and a graph. A graph explains the frequency of something. A tally chart also explains the same thing as the graph but tally charts has some questions. The questions are what is the likelihood of rolling a dice or something else? A tally chart also explains the largest frequency.  

To find data first ask/write questions down like what is the likelihood of rolling a dice. Example of this question is what is the likelihood of rolling a six. Then, roll a dice and note down each number the person roll on a tally chart. After, answer the following questions what is the likelihood of rolling a 6 and what number has the largest frequency? Then, create a graph about that data set.

  1. Hello David,

    I enjoyed reading your blogpost. I like the way you have used the proper terminology to word your blogpost. I think it is a good skill to understand how to interpret data and know the frequency of something. What do you think interpreting data does to help a person?

    1. Hi Farzana,

      Thank you for the feedback, I think interpreting data can help a person by collecting information and explaining what you have collected and informing the people about it.
      Why is it important to collect data and inform people about it?

    2. Hello David,

      Your answer is great, I think it is important to collect data so that people can understand the amount of something and to find out what the data means. Informing people about that data can create a new understanding of the area they are collecting data from. Do you enjoy collecting data and why?
