Question

These are two bar charts. These show the highest temperature (in degrees Celsius) in four cities, on two different days. The cities are Delhi, Shimla, Bangalore and Jaisalmer.



Find out from the bar chart —
• Which city is the hottest on 1 June?
• Which city is the coldest on 1 December?
• Which city shows little change in temperature on the two days —
1 June and 1 December.

Answer 1

• We find from the bar chart that Jaisalmer has the maximum temperature of 38 ^∘C on 1 June. Thus, Jaisalmer is the hottest city on 1 June.

• We find from the bar chart that Shimla has the minimum temperature of ​10 ^∘C on 1 December. Thus, Shimla is the coldest city on ​1 December.

• Temperature difference on 1 June and 1 December for Delhi = ​33 ^∘C − ​23 ^∘C = ​10 ^∘C
Temperature difference on 1 June and 1 December for Shimla = 22 ^∘C − ​10 ^∘C
= 12^∘C
Temperature difference on 1 June and 1 December for Bangalore = 28^∘C − ​24 ^∘C
= 4^∘C
Temperature difference on 1 June and 1 December for Jaisalmer = 38^∘C − ​25 ^∘C
= 13^∘C
Thus, Bangalore shows little change in temperature on 1 June and 1 December.
