1. **State the problem:** We have data points representing the number of holes moths ate in Grandma Marion's dresses: $7,8,8,5,7,8$. We need to create a frequency table showing how many dresses have each number of holes. 2. **List the unique values:** The unique numbers of holes are $5,6,7,8$. 3. **Count the frequency for each number:** - Number of holes $5$: appears once ($5$) - Number of holes $6$: appears zero times (no $6$ in data) - Number of holes $7$: appears twice ($7,7$) - Number of holes $8$: appears three times ($8,8,8$) 4. **Create the frequency table:** | Number of holes | Number of dresses | |-----------------|-------------------| | 5 | 1 | | 6 | 0 | | 7 | 2 | | 8 | 3 | This table summarizes the data clearly, showing how many dresses have each number of holes.
