Chartle is a free software program that allows you to create charts and graphs. Now that you’ve reviewed the data, go to the Chartle.net link below. Halfway down the webpage, click on Data and enter the activities and the amount of time shown for each. I’ve entered the first few activities for you already.

Problems with Chartle? Chartle.net uses the Java web-browser plugin. Please update to the latest Java plugin. Restart your browser. If this Java plugin test runs successfully, the Chartle applet should so as well.
