Question Video: Reading Data from a Histogram Mathematics

Video Transcript

The histogram shows the highest wind speeds in 30 different cities. How many cities recorded wind speeds of 75 miles per hour or more?

So we’re wanting to know how many cities recorded wind speed of 75 miles per hour or more. So our miles per hour is found down here at the bottom. And here is 75. So 75 or more would go this way. So we care about this box.

And the height of this box will tell us the number of cities recording wind speeds of 75 miles per hour or more. So our answer will be two. So there are two cities that recorded wind speeds of 75 miles per hour or more.
