$\begin{array}{cc}\text{Months}& \text{Profits (in thousands)}\\ \text{January}& 2.4\\ \text{February}& 1.8\\ \text{March}& 3.0\\ \text{April}& 4.0\\ \text{May}& 5.2\\ \text{June}& 4.0\\ \text{July}& 2.0\end{array}$

(b) The following bar graph shows the number of men and women visiting a sports complex. Can you spot the day when the number of men was equal to the number of women and on which day is the number of women 20 more than the number of men?

Answer 1

(a) 2 Marks
(b) 2 Marks

Scale : x - axis - Months
y - axis - Profits in thousands - 1 cm = 1 Thousand





(b)


Here, the height of the bar graph gives us the number of men and women. For Thursday, the height of both the graphs is same. So, on Thursday, the number of men was equal to the number of women.
On Monday the number of women is 20 more than the number of men. (No. of men = 40 , No. of women = 60)
