Correct Answer

Yes, there are other ways to arrange data.

Data can be arranged in:

  • Grouped into categories or classes
  • Frequency distribution tables with tally marks
  • Visual representations using pictographs and bar graphs

Each method has its own advantages depending on what information we want to extract from the data.

Solution Steps

  1. Arrange data in descending order (from largest to smallest)

  2. Group data into categories or classes

  3. Organize using frequency distribution tables with tally marks

  4. Present visually using pictographs and bar graphs
