This document provides a warm-up math problems and an introduction to using graphs to understand data better. It includes 6 multi-step math problems asking students to simplify fractions and expressions. It then introduces that graphs can help understand data visually before listing 7 graph examples labeled A through G for students to refer to on pages 276-277 of their materials. The document provides warm-up math practice and an introduction to using graphs in data analysis.

1. Warm­Up:
1) Simplify: 4.2 ­ 0.42
2) Simplify: 3 1/2 1 1/3 2 1/4
3) Simplify: 8 5/12 ­ 3 2/3
4) Simplify: (0.2)(0.3)(0.4)
5) Write 85% as a reduced fraction.
