Key idea

Bins are equal width and the bars touch. Height = how many values fall in that interval. You can read counts, compare groups and see the shape — but not any individual value.

Sample problems

  1. How wide is each bin?
  2. How many students are in the 70–79 bin?
  3. How many students are in the 90–99 bin?
  4. How many students scored at least 70?

Common mistakes to watch for

  • Answered 4 by counting the bins rather than adding the students in them.
  • Answered ‘12’ alone. The question asks which bin as well as how many.
  • Answered 99, assuming the bin's top value was achieved. Nobody may have scored 99 at all.

The answer key explains each one, so you can tell what a wrong answer means.

How to use this set

  1. Teach with the slides (about 15 minutes), or watch the video together.
  2. Practice with the worksheet. Questions climb from fluency to application to reasoning.
  3. Check understanding with the exit ticket, and send the homework home.
  4. Mark with the answer key — each answer shows the steps and the most likely mistake.
