C

Answer 1

Sort and group the data:

Data (sorted): 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 13, 13, 14, 15, 16, 20

Using 5‑pound bins (0–4, 5–9, 10–14, 15–19, 20–24) the frequencies are:
- 0–4: 2 pumpkins (3,4)
- 5–9: 5 pumpkins (5,6,7,8,9)
- 10–14: 4 pumpkins (10,13,13,14)
- 15–19: 2 pumpkins (15,16)
- 20–24: 1 pumpkin (20)

So pick the histogram whose bar heights are 2, 5, 4, 2, 1 for those bins. If you tell me which of A, B, or C has that pattern, I’ll confirm the letter.
