At the park picnic, Emek and Luna needed to choose two games for everyone to play. Their friends voted for sack race, ring toss, or beanbag toss. Emek and Luna made a bar graph showing 6 votes for sack race, 9 for ring toss, and 7 for beanbag toss. They compared the heights of the bars and found the two largest groups. Ring toss and beanbag toss became the picnic challenge games.
