The content focuses on 'Handling Data' within a healthcare context, specifically scenarios involving a GP surgery, a nurse practitioner, a pharmacy, and an A&E department. Students are tasked with creating and interpreting data representations, such as bar charts, frequency tables, and graphs, using real-world medical data. The handout includes specific vocabulary lists and provides comprehensive answer keys for all exercises to assist learners in verifying their proficiency in data interpretation and statistical analysis. It serves as a structured resource for developing core mathematical skills through practical, workplace-related problem-solving scenarios, ensuring students gain confidence in handling numerical information relevant to daily life and clinical settings.",{"@graph":14,"@context":73},[15,34,56],{"@type":16,"itemListElement":17},"BreadcrumbList",[18,23,27,31],{"item":19,"name":20,"@type":21,"position":22},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",1,{"item":24,"name":25,"@type":21,"position":26},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":28,"name":29,"@type":21,"position":30},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/exam/","Exam",3,{"item":32,"name":10,"@type":21,"position":33},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/functional-skills-maths-entry-3-handling-data-going-to-the-doctor/620813/",4,{"url":32,"name":10,"@type":35,"image":36,"author":41,"headline":10,"publisher":44,"fileFormat":47,"inLanguage":8,"description":12,"dateModified":48,"datePublished":49,"encodingFormat":47,"isAccessibleForFree":50,"interactionStatistic":51},"DigitalDocument",{"url":37,"@type":38,"width":39,"height":40},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/functional-skills-maths-entry-3-handling-data-going-to-the-doctor/620813.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":42,"@type":43},"Genevieve","Person",{"url":19,"name":45,"@type":46},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-31","2026-10-20",true,{"@type":52,"interactionType":53,"userInteractionCount":55},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":54},"ViewAction",5,{"@type":57,"mainEntity":58},"FAQPage",[59,65,69],{"name":60,"@type":61,"acceptedAnswer":62},"How
