What are the common mistakes in Line graphs?

When a pupil makes one of these on Revision Workshop, the marking engine names the mistake and explains it, instead of just marking the answer wrong.

• Reads the value at the wrong time on a line graph

  Used 12pm instead of 2pm when working out the increase.

• Picks the group containing the single highest individual value in a table instead of correctly summing each group's values to compare totals.

  Picks 2015's Quarter 2 value (72), the single highest number in the table, and mistakenly associates it with the wrong year, or compares individual quarters instead of adding up each year's full total.

• Reads the value for the wrong day on a line graph

  Used Wed instead of Thu when working out the increase.
