Number figures, tables and references in the order they appear as you write . Every figure, table and reference must be mentioned in the text of the report, so do not include any which you do not mention, e.g., references. In the case of books, the page or pages should be given as well. Lab notes are not a reference. Unless you invented an equation, cite a reference.
Figures Use graph paper, and give each figure a number and title at the bottom.
Do not use odd scales such as 3 or 7 to the in. or cm. Do not write anything in the margins of the paper- everything should be in the grid area. If you use table to show some aspect of your results, they should follow the figures.
