The answer is simply C.$2.50

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer option is C. $2.50

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a dot plot which represents the prices of different brands of the chocolate bars.

Against each price, we see a dot plot for different chocolate brands. So to find the most common price for a chocolate bar (by different brands), we just need to look for the price which has the most number of dots plotted against it.

For $1, we have 1 dot,

$1.5 has 4 dots,

$2 has 3 dots,

$2.5 has 5 dots,

$3 has 2 dots,

$3.5 has 3 dots,

$4 has 2 dots,

$4.5 and $5 have 1 dot.

Therefore, $2.5 is the most common price for a chocolate bar chosen by different brands.
