Create and Analyze Fractional Line Plots Practice Test

A class measured the lengths of shells they found, to the nearest $\tfrac{1}{8}$ inch. The data can be represented and analyzed using line plots.

Line plot (inches):

Number line (inches): $1\tfrac{1}{8}\ \ \ 1\tfrac{1}{4}\ \ \ 1\tfrac{3}{8}\ \ \ 1\tfrac{1}{2}\ \ \ 1\tfrac{5}{8}$

Marks:

• $1\tfrac{1}{8}$: X
• $1\tfrac{1}{4}$: XXX
• $1\tfrac{3}{8}$: XX
• $1\tfrac{1}{2}$: X
• $1\tfrac{5}{8}$: XX

Which statement about the data shown on the line plot is correct?

A student tracked how much juice (in cups) was poured into a glass each day, to the nearest $\tfrac{1}{4}$ cup. The data can be represented and analyzed using line plots.

Line plot (cups):

Number line (cups): $\tfrac{1}{2}\ \ \ \tfrac{3}{4}\ \ \ 1\ \ \ 1\tfrac{1}{4}\ \ \ 1\tfrac{1}{2}$

Marks:

• $\tfrac{1}{2}$: X
• $\tfrac{3}{4}$: XX
• $1$: XXXX
• $1\tfrac{1}{4}$: X
• $1\tfrac{1}{2}$: XX
