Find the age, to the nearest month, of the people in your class. Use the average age in months as your zero and positive and negative numbers to write the age of each person in relation to the average. Work in a group to find a good visual way to display this information. Discuss what is gained by communicating the data in this way and report your conclusions

We are not in a class and cannot work with your group.

Since you are presumably all in the same grade, there will not be a very large "spread" of ages. You had better plot the ages (x axis) and number with that age (y axis) to the nearest month, not year.

You should get a "scatter" type plot with an approximately bell curve shape

This is AXIA math and there is no way to get a group unless the instructors predetermine them. VERY STUPID question for online school.
