I chose to compare the number of McDonald's in the United States because this fast food restaurant  is a huge franchise and the number would be interesting. It is displayed that one of our largest states had the most McDonalds's ( 1,492 ) and North Dakota had the fewest restaurants ( 29 )

Being that McDonald's has been very popular for many years now I was not surprised to see the results of the mean. However, there 3 modes because 3 numbers all showed twice. There are not large data clusters or outliers.

Being that the data was separated  by state, it was a little difficult to group the data again, however, a few number did appear more than once and it does not look clustered.

The line graph and histogram show the peak where California had the most restaurants in 2015. However, it may be a little difficult to interpret the pie chart. If I had to chose one graph to display,  I would select the Histogram. This graph is clear, a little more concise than the line graph, and easier to interpret.
