Problem
Skye recorded the number of pets owned by each student in her class.| 0 | 2 | 3 | 1 | 2 | 4 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 5 | 2 | 3 | 6 |
| 2 | 3 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 4 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 2 | 1 | 2 | 0 |
Intuitive explanation
This is about organizing raw data into a frequency distribution—counting how many students own each number of pets. Once you tally up the frequencies, you'll see the pattern of pet ownership in the class and can answer questions about the most common number or calculate statistics like the mean. The key is to systematically count each value rather than trying to work from the messy list.
