How to answer questions from a picture graph data

📚 Quick Study Guide

• 📊 Picture graphs use pictures or symbols to represent data. Each picture stands for a certain number of items.
• 🔑 Always check the key! The key tells you what each picture represents (e.g., 1 sun = 5 sunny days).
• 🔢 To find the total, multiply the number of pictures by the value in the key.
• ➕ If you need to compare categories, add up the values for each category and then compare the totals.
• 🧮 Sometimes, a partial picture is used to represent a fraction of the whole value (e.g., half a sun = 2.5 sunny days if a whole sun = 5 sunny days).
