First we changed the table from focusing on the gold to having scores for each medal.
Key
Gold= 3 points
Silver= 2 points
Bronze= 1 point
This way most of the nations change place to where we think they should be.
E.g France moved UP from 10th position to 7th. Japan moved DOWN from 8th position to 10th.
We showed the information in two graph styles. One was a BAR GRAPH and the other a PIE CHART.
The bar graph is easier to read because it is more accurate. We had a problem with the pie chart because the results needed to be rounded to two decimal places. When we added up the total degrees we got 361.02 instead of 360. We also found that we were not accurate enough in our measurements.
