Video: Recognizing the Highest Value in a Dot Plot

Video Transcript

The dot plot shows the different scores achieved in a game. What was the highest score?

Here, we have the title of our dot plot — score. And it tells us that on this line are listed all the different scores, from 40 to 100. Above the 100, there are no dots. This means no one scored 100. Above the 90, there are no dots. No one scored 90. The next score listed is 80. And there are four dots above the 80, which means four people scored 80. 80 would be the highest score achieved.
