RE: problem with bs limits/graph?????? HELP!!!!!
The graphs are usually drawn as cumulative percent passing a certain seive. For example the first point on your graph may be the percentage (by mass relative to your total sample) that passes through the 50 mm seive (thus all the portions of the sample that are less than 50 mm size). The next point may be the percentage that passes through the 40 mm seive, and so on.
