Dot Plot Drill

One hundred dot-plot questions: ten warm-ups on reading the dots, ten each for mean, mode, range and median, then fifty mixed randomised questions. Every answer is checked from the visual display, with the working shown from the dots.

Example dot plot
Read the data from the stacks.
Each dot is one value. A taller stack means that value occurred more often.

Read the dots

Each dot is one value. Count the data before calculating anything.

Mean

Total all dots, then divide by the number of dots.

Mode

Find the tallest stack. That x-value occurs most often.

Range

Largest value minus smallest value.

Median

Order the dots and find the middle, or average the two middles.

Mixed

Fifty randomised questions requiring the right statistic from the same visual language.
