If you want to be able to identify individual schools, then a table is a better option. Any sizeable city will have several hundred schools and a graph showing the number of teachers in EACH school is likely to be a very cluttered graph.


If you only need to know the distribution of teacher-numbers across schools, a histogram is ideal.


Alternatively if you have the geographical locations of the schools then you could arrange to place a marker for each of them on a map, and to superimpose the number of teachers associated with the a school on its marker on the map.

Would a line graph or bar graph be better for showing the number of birds of each color in a population?

Where would you would use a bar graph instead of a line graph?

A bar graph would be used rather than a line graph to indicate different quantities or numbers of things that are distinct: such as the number of people of different ages in a group.A line graph is used to show a change in something, such as the growth of a person over some years.A line graph would also be more appropriate when showing a ratio.


Why would you not use a pie graph to show the change in school enrollment over the years?

A pie graph is useful for illustrating parts of a total. What, in this case would your total be? The total enrolment over a number of years? If so, it is likely that the different segments are nearly the same size and the human eye is not very good at discriminating between small differences in angles. You would not use a pie graph because, as it says, a pie graph is useful for illustrating parts of a total. if you want to do an over time thing, you use a histogram
