Mrs. Black's class participated in a bike challenge to raise money for new computers in the library.

Question

How many students completed fewer than 8 miles for the challenge?

A line plot named "Number of Miles Completed" shows a number line from 0 to 16. The number line is divided into 8 equal parts. There are 3 dots on 0, 2 dots on 2, 3 dots on 4, 1 dot on 6, 4 dots on 8, 3 dots on 12, 1 dot on 14, and 2 dots on 16.

To find the number of students that completed fewer than 8 miles in the bike challenge, we can look at the data presented on the line plot:

0 miles: 3 dots (3 students)
2 miles: 2 dots (2 students)
4 miles: 3 dots (3 students)
6 miles: 1 dot (1 student)
8 miles: 4 dots (4 students)
12 miles: 3 dots (3 students)
14 miles: 1 dot (1 student)
16 miles: 2 dots (2 students)

Now, we need to count all the students who completed fewer than 8 miles:

0 miles: 3 students
2 miles: 2 students
4 miles: 3 students
6 miles: 1 student

Now we sum these values:

3 (from 0 miles) + 2 (from 2 miles) + 3 (from 4 miles) + 1 (from 6 miles) = 9 students

Therefore, the number of students who completed fewer than 8 miles is 9 students.
