Explanation:

Step1: Count X's at 4

Each X represents one person. At the "4" mark on the number line, we count the X's.
Looking at the graph, the column for 4 trips has 8 X's (let's verify: from top to bottom, we can count them as 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8).

Step2: Confirm the count

By carefully counting each X in the row corresponding to 4 trips, we find there are 8 X's.
