A histogram shows ranges of the number of shoppers per number of stores. The horizontal axis shows number of shoppers ranging from 0 to 1 and then 1 to 13 in increments of 3. The vertical axis ranges from 0 to 5 in increments of 1. The graph shows the following data: 1 to 4 shoppers at 2 stores; 4 to 7 shoppers at 5 stores; 7 to 10 shoppers at 2 stores; 10 to 13 shoppers at 4 stores.

To determine how many stores had at least 7 shoppers, we need to consider the intervals on the histogram that represent 7 or more shoppers.

According to the provided data:

  • For the range of 1 to 4 shoppers, there are 2 stores.
  • For the range of 4 to 7 shoppers, there are 5 stores.
  • For the range of 7 to 10 shoppers, there are 2 stores.
  • For the range of 10 to 13 shoppers, there are 4 stores.

Now we add up the stores with at least 7 shoppers:

  • 7 to 10 shoppers: 2 stores
  • 10 to 13 shoppers: 4 stores

Adding these together gives:

2 (stores with 7 to 10 shoppers) + 4 (stores with 10 to 13 shoppers) = 6 stores

Therefore, the total number of stores that had at least 7 shoppers is 6 stores.
