Data Handling

We have learnt, that a collection of objects can be stored out based on their color, shape, size or any other common thing among them. We can organise all the information in a table to understand how many of each item is there in a collection. Information collected is called data.

Is there an item that was not on the shopping list?

Let us tally the items with the list. Brushes-check. Pencils-check. Crayons- check. Erasers-check. Sharpener-uh Oh! The sharpener was not on the shopping list.


Is there an item she has bought more or less of?

Let us tally the items in the shopping bag with the list. Brushes-2-correct.

Pencils-3-correct. Crayons-3-correct. Erasers-1-Oh no! Geeta bought one sharpener and two erasers by mistake when the shopping list had no mention of a sharpener and just one eraser.
