(il) How many families have less than fivemembers?
(Iii) How many families have more than three members?
(iv) How many families have two children?

Answer 1

(i) The given bar graph shows the number of members in 100 families of a village.

(ii) Number of families having 2 members = 5
Number of families having 3 members = 30
Number of families having 4 members = 55
∴Total number of families haing less than five members = 5 + 30 + 55 = 90

(iii) Number of families having 4 members = 55
Number of families having 5 members = 10
∴Total number of families haing more than three members = 55 + 10 = 65
(iv) Number of families having 2 children = Number of families having 4 members = 55 = (60+35+75+50+60)5 = 2805= 56
