When referring to tables, graphs, or figures within the text, they must be cited together with their numbers and in accordance with the text formatting. (For example, for this explanation, the table presented in Table 1, the figure presented in Figure 1, and the graph presented in Graph 1 have been used as examples within the sentence.)
