quarts of water
how many players drank more than 1 quart of water?
ⓐ 6 ⓑ 7 ⓒ 9 ⓓ 15

Explanation:

Step1: Identify relevant categories

We need to find the number of players who drank more than 1 quart. So we look at the categories \(1\frac{1}{3}\), \(1\frac{2}{3}\), and \(2\).

Step2: Count dots for \(1\frac{1}{3}\)

For \(1\frac{1}{3}\), we count the number of dots. From the dot - plot, the number of dots at \(1\frac{1}{3}\) is 5.

Step3: Count dots for \(1\frac{2}{3}\)

For \(1\frac{2}{3}\), the number of dots is 3.

Step4: Count dots for \(2\)

For \(2\), the number of dots is 1.

Step5: Sum the counts

We sum up the number of dots for \(1\frac{1}{3}\), \(1\frac{2}{3}\), and \(2\). So \(5 + 3+1=9\).
