To test him further, Jack gave another question which he remembered from the test he has created already. There are two bar graphs as shown below which represent the number of runs scored by two batsmen in 5 matches.
Which of the following options show the correct double bar graphs representing runs scored by both batsmen?
In order to merge two bar graphs, there are two parameters required:
1. The number of samples being compared should be the same.
2. The scale of both the graphs should be equal.
In both the cases, the number of samples is the same that is 5 matches. But the scale of runs is different in both the cases. So, in order to merge them, the heights of bars in one of the bar graphs should change. If you observe carefully, these are the runs scored in the four options:
So, in option A, the scale of the second bar graph is adjusted according to the first one and in option B, the scale of the first bar graph is adjusted according to the second one. But as you can see, both of them are correct.
