Sum student answers

Happy Spring Everyone!
Does anyone know of a way to display the sum of all the answers entered by students in a math input box?

For instance, I want each student to enter how many pets they have and then on the next slide have it show the total number of pets in the classroom. I don’t care if it is displayed in a table, a graph, or something else.

Yes, that’s it! Thank you so much for your help. I have been trying to get that to work all day.
All of your work makes perfect sense to me except for why you used those particular numbers in the list in the graph: [1,2,2,3,4,5,5]. How did you know to use those numbers?

The important part of @Sian_Sleight’s answer is in the graph CL. The aggregate compiles all student answers into a list. The defined list in the graph is overwritten by the definition in CL, so the list was arbitrary to check if other things are working.
