Which table shows the same data?

First, read the data off the graph.

Lakes

Duck

Ducks in local lakes

ruddy duck

wood duck

Look at the first table:

Ducks in local lakes
Lake	Ruddy ducks	Wood ducks
Canoe Lake	40	100
Glide Lake	30	60
Aspen Lake	20	40

The first table is correct. It shows the same data as the graph.

Look at the second table:

Ducks in local lakes
Lake	Ruddy ducks	Wood ducks
Canoe Lake	40	100
Glide Lake	30	40
Aspen Lake	20	60

The second table is incorrect. Two of the values in the wood ducks column are switched.
