Question

In an effort to reduce the number of gun-related homicides, some cities have run buyback programs in which the police offer cash (often $50) to anyone who turns in an operating handgun. The table below shows the results from a four-year period in Milwaukee. You can see what types of guns were turned in and what types were used in homicides during a four-year period.

Caliber of gun Small (.22, .25,.32) Medium (.357, .38, 9 mm) Large (40, 44,.45) Other Buyback 76.40% 19.30% 2.10% 2.20% Homicide 20.30% 54.70% 10.80% 14.20%

1. Draw a bar chart showing the distribution of gun sizes among guns used in homicides vs guns given away in the buyback program.
2. Write a few sentences comparing the two distributions.
