Question

(1)
The number of scouts in a school is depicted by the following pictograph:

Observe the pictograph and answer the following questions:

a) Which class has the minimum number of scouts?

(2)
(b) Which class has the maximum number of scouts?

(3)
(c) How many scouts are there in Class VI?

(4)
(d) Which class has exactly four times the scouts as that of Class X?

(5)
(e) What is the total number of scouts in the Classes VI to X?

Answer 1

(1)
Part (a):
Out of all, class X least number of smileys against it in the pictograph.
Hence, class X has minimum number of scouts

(2)
Part (b):
Out of all, class VIII has maximum number of smileys against it. i.e., 6 in the pictograph.
Hence, class VIII has maximum number of scouts.

(3)
part (c) :
Class VII has four smiley faces in pictograph.
As each smiley represents 10 secouts.
$\therefore$ Four smiley faces has $4\times 10=40$ scouts

(4)
part (d)
We know that class X has 1 smiley.
and Class VI has 4 smileys =4 four times of 1.
$=4\times \text{class X}$
$\therefore$ Class Vi is the required answer.

(5)
part (e)
there are $4+2+6+3+1=14$ symbols are there and one symbol is equal to 10
So, total scouts are $14\times 10$=140
$\therefore$ total scouts =140
