What is a frequency table and what do the tally marks mean?

A "frequency table" just refers to a kind of table you can make to record the frequency of particular results or events, as part of an experiment or to analyse data. It is convenient to list the possible events or results along the left side of the table, and then make tally marks across from them, in order to count the number of times each one appears; thus, the tally marks represent each event or result's frequency, or the number of times it shows up.

How do you write numbers in tally marks?

To write numbers in tally marks, you group them in sets of five for easier counting. Each tally is represented by a vertical line, and the fifth tally is drawn diagonally across the first four, forming a bundle. For example, the number 7 would be represented as four vertical lines followed by a diagonal line crossing them and then two additional vertical lines. This method helps quickly visualize and count larger numbers efficiently.

How do you convert education tally to normal tally?

To convert an education tally (typically represented with marks or symbols) to a normal tally, replace each group of five marks with a single line crossing through the previous four. For example, if you have four marks (||||), add a fifth mark that crosses them (||||/). Count the total marks, and each complete group of five can be represented as one tally. Finally, simply count the remaining marks to arrive at the total.
