To create a dot plot based on the provided quiz scores and the number of students who achieved those scores, we need to represent each score with the corresponding number of dots.

Here are the scores and their corresponding number of dots:

  • 45: 10 dots
  • 46: 7 dots
  • 47: 4 dots
  • 48: 8 dots
  • 49: 3 dots
  • 50: 1 dot

To answer your question, we specifically look for the number of dots above the number 47 in the dot plot.

Based on the breakdown:

  • 47 has 4 dots.

Therefore, the number of dots above the number 47 in the dot plot is 4.

So the answer is: 4
