Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 5.97 Make Line Plots with Fractional Measurements skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery
For community garden soil amounts, make the line plot in gallons, not quarts. Use 4 quarts = 1 gallon. Data: 8 quarts, 6 quarts, 6 quarts, 5 quarts, 5 quarts, 9 quarts, 3 quarts, 9 quarts, 4 quarts, 7 quarts, 5 quarts. Which plot is correct?
ATitle: Community Soil Amounts; axis label: Soil amount (quarts); scale: 3 to 9 by 1-quart intervals; X counts: 3: 1 X; 4: 1 X; 5: 3 Xs; 6: 2 Xs; 7: 1 X; 8: 1 X; 9: 2 Xs
BTitle: Community Soil Amounts; axis label: Soil amount (gallons); scale: 3/4 to 2 1/4 by 1/2-gallon intervals; X counts: 3/4: 1 X; 1 1/4: 3 Xs; 1 3/4: 1 X; 2 1/4: 2 Xs
CTitle: Community Soil Amounts; axis label: Soil amount (gallons); scale: 3/4 to 2 1/4 by 1/4-gallon intervals; X counts: 3/4: 1 X; 1: 1 X; 1 1/4: 3 Xs; 1 1/2: 2 Xs; 1 3/4: 1 X; 2: 1 X; 2 1/4: 2 Xs
DTitle: Community Soil Amounts; axis label: Soil amount (gallons); scale: 3/4 to 2 1/4 by 1/4-gallon intervals; X counts: 3/4: 1 X; 1: 2 Xs; 1 1/4: 2 Xs; 1 1/2: 2 Xs; 1 3/4: 1 X; 2: 1 X; 2 1/4: 2 Xs
Solution & Explanation:First convert each measurement to gallons using the given conversion factor. The converted data run from 3/4 to 2 1/4 gallons and need 1/4-gallon intervals. The correct plot is labeled in gallons and has these X counts: 3/4: 1 X; 1: 1 X; 1 1/4: 3 Xs; 1 1/2: 2 Xs; 1 3/4: 1 X; 2: 1 X; 2 1/4: 2 Xs.
Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery
A group recorded habitat model path lengths in inches. The display should be a line plot in feet. Use 12 inches = 1 foot. Measurements: 24 inches, 36 inches, 36 inches, 21 inches, 30 inches, 36 inches, 21 inches, 27 inches, 39 inches, 24 inches, 33 inches. Which answer is correctly constructed?
ATitle: Habitat Path Lengths; axis label: Path length (feet); scale: 1 3/4 to 3 1/4 by 1/4-foot intervals; X counts: 1 3/4: 2 Xs; 2: 2 Xs; 2 1/4: 1 X; 2 1/2: 1 X; 2 3/4: 1 X; 3: 3 Xs; 3 1/4: 1 X
BTitle: Habitat Path Lengths; axis label: Path length (inches); scale: 21 to 39 by 3-inch intervals; X counts: 21: 2 Xs; 24: 2 Xs; 27: 1 X; 30: 1 X; 33: 1 X; 36: 3 Xs; 39: 1 X
