LESSON Different Graphs Used to

1 Represent Organized Data

There are several ways to present the set of data: by tabular form, chart, and graph.
But among these, the graph is the most vivid representation of the data collected.
Here are some of the common graphs in representing organized data.
1. Pie Chart or Circle Graph EXAMPLE: Use the pie chart to
- It is a circle divided into sections used to show answer the questions below:
how the relation of a part with the whole.
EXAMPLE: 1. How many members are
there in each grade level?
Members of a Math Club Gr.7 - 20% x 50 = 0.20 x 50 = 10
Grade 7 Gr.8 - 26% x 50 = 0.26 x 50 = 13
36% 20% Grade 8 Gr.9 - 18% x 50 = 0.18 x 50 = 9
18% 26% Grade 9
Gr.10 - 36% x 50 = 0.36 x 50 = 18

Grade 10
2. What grade level has the
least number of members in the
Math
The circle represents the total number of Club? Grade 9
members – example there are 50 members.

 3. What grade level does the
majority of the Math Club members
belong? Grade 10
2. Bar Graph The bar graph shows the number of
- It is used for making direct visual comparison of cars of different colors sold in one
data. year of a certain city.

EXAMPLE:
Refer to the graph and answer the
Sales of Cars following questions:
1. How many blue cars were
sold? 2
8

2 color of
0 cars? Black
Blue Gray White Red Black
Color
3. How many gray cars were
sold? 3

4. What color has the most

number
of car sold? Red

5. What conclusion can you

make from the graph? The bar
graph represents the greatest
number of cars sold in terms of
colors in a year.
3. Line Graph From the graph, the trend of profit of

the horizontal scales. On the vertical scale is Let us study the graph and answer

frequency distribution. every class interval

EXAMPLE: There are two types of ogive: the

less than type and the more than
type.

The example given is a less than

type ogive.
