Tabulation

Tables:

1. Make sure to look at the entire table or graph.
2. Make sure to express your answer in the correct units (Units of the Tables or Graphs).
3. Look at the possible answers before calculating.
4. Don’t confuse decimals and percentages. If the units are percentages, then an entry of .2 means .2% which is equal to .002.
5. In inference questions, only the information given can be used. See if the answer makes sense.
