INTRODUCTION
The numeracy and data analysis is a way of gathering and analyzing data that allows us to
gain useful information (Coben And et.al., 2016). In other words, data method is typically aim to
investigate which data depends on explanation, whatever it attempts to tell everyone else. This
assessment is based on data collection, where it is related to the number of hours sleeping per
day. Around 10 consecutive days of data required for the further evaluation. in addition, it
include variety of measurements such as mean , mode , median, as well as predicting are also
done underneath the research project.
MAIN BODY
1. Arrange data in tabular format
Below mention table represent the data for regular 10 days sleeping hours of an individual.
Which the help of it, individual able to understand as well as arrange the data which further
simplify the work and it mentioned in the below table:
Days Sleeping Hours
1 8
2 7
3 11
4 4
5 5
6 9
7 10
8 12
9 3
10 8
2. Represent data by using two different types of charts
Column Chart: It is the graphical representation which shows the trend or the figures of
particular components which provide better understating of data (Gatobu, Arocha and Hoffman-
Goetz, 2016).
