Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    It depends on what you are trying to show with your graph.

    I might use a scale of 0-80 or 0-100 if I needed to show their relative sizes. I might use a scale of 60±25 (35-85) if I needed to show how the numbers varied from their average. I might use a scale from 1.5 to 1.9 if I am interested in the logarithms of the numbers.
