1/ How many pictures did you draw for poodles?Why?

2/ Last year, there were twice as many beagles in the dog show . How would you show that number on the pictograph? Explain.

Each bone stands for 5 dogs.

35/5 = ?

(2 * 15) / 5 = ?

Q2/ why multiplication?

Twice as many means multiply by 2.

1/ To find out how many pictures were drawn for poodles, we need to refer to the number of dogs for each breed given in the table. According to the table, there are 35 poodles in the dog show. Therefore, this is the number of pictures that would have been drawn for poodles. Each dog in the show would typically have a picture drawn of them for display.

2/ To show the number of beagles in the dog show last year, which is twice the number specified in the table, we can use a pictograph. A pictograph is a visual representation of data using pictures or symbols. In this case, since the number of beagles is multiplied by 2, we would need to represent that visually.

To create a pictograph for beagles, we would first choose a symbol or picture that represents a certain number of beagles. Let's say we decide to use a picture of a beagle to represent 5 beagles. Since the number of beagles in the table is 15, we would then need three of these pictures to represent the actual number of beagles.

We would draw three pictures of beagles on the pictograph. Each picture would represent 5 beagles, so by having three pictures, we can show a total of 15 beagles. This would effectively represent the information that there were twice as many beagles in the dog show last year compared to the current year.
