Revision notes

Revise representing and interpreting data

Read tables, bar graphs and line graphs, then complete missing table entries and check their totals.

Key ideas

  1. Read and complete tables

    A table entry belongs to both its row and its column. Use a known total to find a missing part, then check the other direction.

  2. Bar graphs and axis scales

    Read the scale before a bar’s value. The same drawn height can represent a different amount on another scale.

  3. Tables, bars and line graphs

    Use a line graph for readings taken in time order and a bar graph for separate categories. Read every value with the axis scale.

What the syllabus asks

From the Primary 5 Foundation Mathematics 2025 syllabus

  • Reading and interpreting data from tables/graphs
  • Completing a table from given data
