Aboard their spaceship, Emek and Luna checked the space garden every day before the next part of their mission. Over four days, they recorded the number of vegetables harvested from tomatoes, lettuce, and carrots in a table and displayed the totals on a bar graph. The graph showed that tomatoes produced 18 vegetables, lettuce 14, and carrots 21. By comparing the data, they identified carrots as the crop with heighest quantitity and harvested enough fresh food to stock the spaceship before continuing their journey.

Hint
Compare all three totals, not just tomatoes and lettuce.
A student says, "Tomatoes produced the most vegetables because 18 is greater than 14." Based on the bar graph data, what is the best conclusion?
The student is correct because tomatoes have the greatest total.The student is incorrect because carrots produced more vegetables than tomatoes.The student is incorrect because lettuce produced more vegetables than tomatoes.The student is correct because tomatoes and carrots produced the same total.Correct! Carrots produced 21 vegetables, which is more than tomatoes with 18.

Next🎉 Congrats! You got this question!
Hint
Identify the largest and the smallest harvest before finding the difference.
Emek says, "The difference between the largest and smallest harvest is 3 vegetables." Is Emek correct?
Yes, because 21 − 18 = 3.No, because the largest and smallest harvests differ by 7 vegetables.No, because the largest and smallest harvests differ by 4 vegetables.Yes, because 18 − 14 = 4.Correct! The largest harvest is 21 and the smallest is 14, so the difference is 7.
Compare the largest total with the smallest total, not just any two crops.
