Create the probability histograms and give conclusion on their differences.

In government data, a household consists of all occupants of a dwelling unit, while a family consists of two or more persons who live together and are related by blood or marriage. So all families form households, but some households are not families. Here are the distributions of household size and of family size in the United States:

Number of persons	1	2	3	4	5	6	7
Households	0.27	0.33	0.16	0.14	0.06	0.03	0.01
Family probability	0	0.44	0.22	0.2	0.09	0.03	0.02

Make probability histograms for these 2 discrete distributions, using the same scales. What are the most significant differences between the sizes of households and families?
