(08.03)a group of 12 students participated in a dance competition. their scores are below: score (points) 1 2 3 4 5 number of students 1 2 4 3 2 would a dot plot or a histogram best represent the data presented here? why? histogram, because a large number of scores are reported as ranges histogram, because a small number of scores are reported individually dot plot, because a large number of scores are reported as ranges dot plot, because a small number of scores are reported individually

Histograms are useful when we have data which can be divided into several classes or groups. The histogram shows the trend of each class and the trend among the different classes. For example when we have about 50 different values ranging from 1 to 20, it will be a better approach to draw a histogram in this case by dividing the data into small ranges e.g 1 to 4, 5 to 9 and so on and counting the frequency for each class.

Dot plot is useful when we have a small number of individual values. In this case we can visualize how many times each individual value occurred in the data. This is useful when the number of values in the data is less.

In the given scenario, we have 12 values in total ranging from 1 to 5. So making a dot plot would be the best choice. A histogram would not be useful in this case.

Therefore, the correct answer is option D. Dot plot, because a small number of scores are reported individually
