Question 88(i)
The data given below shows the production of motorbikes in a factory for some months of two consecutive years.
Study the table given above and answer the following Questions:
Draw a double bar graph using appropriate scale to depict the above information and compare them.
Steps to construct the bar graphs are as follows:
Step I We draw two lines perpendicular to each other on a graph paper and call them horizontal and vertical axes.
Step II Along the horizontal axis, OX mark the months and along the vertical axis, OY mark the production of motorbikes.
Step III We choose a suitable scale to determine the heights of bars. Here we choose the scale as 1 big division to represent 400.
Step IV First, we draw the bars for the year 2008 and then bars for the year 2007 for different months.
Bars for the year 2008 and year 2007 months are shaded separately and the shading is shown in the top right corner of the graph paper.
