a group of 22 students participated in a race. their scores are below:

score (points) 4–5 6–7 8–9 10–11 12–13
number of students 3 5 8 4 2

would a dot plot or a histogram best represent the data presented here? why?

a dot plot, because a large number of scores are reported as ranges
b dot plot, because a small number of scores are reported individually
c histogram, because a large number of scores are reported as ranges
d histogram, because a small number of scores are reported individually
