Frequently Asked Questions
What is a tally mark and how do we draw the fifth line?
Tally marks are lines used for counting. We draw four straight vertical lines and cross them with a fifth slanted line to make a group of 5, which makes counting in groups easy.
Why do we use pictures in a pictograph?
Pictures make information colorful, interesting, and very easy to understand at a single glance without reading long numbers.
How do I find the total number of items from a pictograph key?
Multiply the number of pictures drawn by the value given in the key (for example, if one apple picture stands for 2 apples, 3 pictures mean 3 x 2 = 6 apples).
