The plot below shows the mass of each of 999 puppies in a litter.
A line plot labeled mass of puppies in pounds
shows, moving left to right, labeled tick marks at zero, one-fourth, one-half, three-fourths, and one.There is an unlabeled tick mark between each labeled tick mark. Dots are plotted as follows: 1 dot above one-fourth; 1 dot above one-half; 4 dots above the tick after one-half, and 3 dots above three-fourths.
