Question

Choose the correct statement from the options based on the given pictograph.

• A. The same number of people order pizzas and sandwiches
• B. $4$ more people order pizza than burger
• C. $4$ more people order burgers than pasta
• D. $1$ more person orders a sandwich than pizza

Answer 1

The correct option is B $4$ more people order pizza than burger

In the given pictograph, each $=2$ people
From the given pictograph,

Number of pizzas ordered = Number of $\times 2=8\times 2=2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2=16$
Number of sandwiches ordered $=9\times 2=2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2=18$
Number of burgers ordered $=6\times 2=2+2+2+2+2+2=12$
Number of pastas ordered $=5\times 2=2+2+2+2+2=10$
Number of people who ordered pizza more than the burger $=$ Number of pizzas ordered − Number of burgers ordered
$=16-12=4$
Number of people who ordered sandwich more than the pizza = Number of sandwiches ordered − Number of pizzas ordered
$=18-16=2$
Number of people who ordered burger more than pasta = Number of burgers ordered − Number of pastas ordered
$=12-10=2$
Number of people who ordered sandwich more than pizza = Number of sandwiches ordered − Number of pizzas ordered
$=18-16=2$
Hence, only Option A is correct.
