Can you help me with a histogram in Excel?

1. Prepare the data: You should have two columns. The first column should list the ethnicities (White, Hispanic or Latino, Black or African American, Asian, Other). The second column should list the number of students from each ethnicity.

2. Select the data: Click and drag to select all the cells that contain your data.

3. The histogram: Click on the "Insert" tab at the top of Excel. In the "Charts" group, click on the "Column" button. Choose the first option under "2-D Column" (Clustered Column).

4. Customize the histogram: Click on the chart to select it. Use the "Chart Tools" that appear at the top of Excel to customize your histogram. You can add a title, label the axes, change the color of the bars, etc.

5. Interpret the histogram: The height of each bar represents the number of students from each ethnicity. The ethnicities are listed along the x-axis, and the number of students is listed along the y-axis. The histogram should show a multimodal distribution, with the largest bar for White, followed by Hispanic or Latino, then Black or African American and Asian, and finally Other.

Remember, the purpose of this histogram is to provide a visual representation of the ethnic diversity within the sample of first-generation college students. It can help understand the ethnic breakdown of the sample and analyze potential differences in perceived academic success by ethnicity.

The histogram is a visual representation of the distribution of data.
