Statistics

A picture graph (or pictograph) is a chart that uses pictures to show how many of something there are. Each picture stands for one object (or more, if we say so). It helps us see and count easily!

Let’s look at the fruits in the box and make a picture graph!First, we sort the fruits into groups. Then, we can show how many there are with a picture graph. In this picture graph, one picture = one fruit.
