To organize the data so that the shopkeeper can understand the sales, the simplest way is to count the occurrences of each item and then display the counts in an organized format. Here's how you might approach this:

1. List of Items Sold:

Start by creating a list of all the items sold. In your case, the items recorded in the diary are:
Shirt, Tie, Shirt, Skirt, Shoe, Belt, Socks, Tie, Skirt, Shirt, Belt, Skirt, Socks, Tie, Shoe, Belt


2.Count the Sales of Each Item:

Now count the occurrences of each unique item in the list:

  • Shirt: 3 times
  • Tie: 3 times
  • Skirt: 3 times
  • Shoe: 2 times
  • Belt: 3 times

     . Socks: 2 times

3. Organize and Display the Data:

You can display the data in a simple table or bullet points for easier readability
Item | Count

-------|-------

Shirt  | 3

Tie    | 3

Skirt  | 3

Shoe   | 2

Belt   | 3

Socks  | 2


Alternatively, you can display the counts in a more visual way, such as a bar chart, to quickly visualize which items are selling more or less frequently.

By organizing the data in this way, the shopkeeper can easily understand which items are selling well and which might require more attention. This helps in planning stock, promotions, or other business-related decisions.
