Answer 1

To create a bar graph from the data in the table, follow these steps:

1. Draw a vertical and horizontal axis on a piece of graph paper.
2. Label the horizontal axis with the lunch options (Pizza, Chicken Patty, Hamburger).
3. Label the vertical axis with the number of votes.
4. Using a ruler, draw bars for each lunch option on the graph, with the height of the bar corresponding to the number of votes for that option.
5. Label each bar with the number of votes it represents.
6. Add a title to the graph, such as "Favorite School Lunch Votes," and include a legend if necessary.
