STRAIGHT ANSWER

Answer 1

The lengths that combined have the same number of students as 3 3/4 (which is 5 dots) are:

• 3 2/4 (3/4 of an inch, which is equivalent to 3.5 or 3 1/2, and has 5 dots)
• 3 1/4 (which has 3 dots)

So the correct lengths that have the same number of students as 3 3/4 would be 3 2/4 as it has the same number of students (5).

Thus, the answer is:

• 3 2/4 (3.5 or 3 1/2) is one suitable response that corresponds to 3 3/4 (5 dots).
