Picture graph key examples with answers (Grade 3)

📚 Quick Study Guide

• 📊 A picture graph uses pictures or symbols to show data. Each picture represents a certain number of items.
• 🔑 The key tells you what each picture stands for. For example, one sun ☀️ might represent 2 sunny days.
• ➕ To find the total, multiply the number of pictures by the value in the key. If you have 3 suns and each sun represents 2 days, then you have $3 \times 2 = 6$ sunny days.
• 🤔 When a picture is only partially shown, it represents a fraction of the key value. For instance, half a sun 🌤️ might represent 1 sunny day if a full sun represents 2.
• 🧐 Always read the title and labels on the graph to understand what the data is about.
