Question 4: Read the bar graph shown below and answer the following questions:
(i) What is the information given by the bar graph?
(ii) How many tickets of Assam State Lottery were sold by the agent?
(iii) Of which state, were the maximum number of tickets sold?
(iv) State whether true or false.
The maximum number of tickets sold is three times the minimum number of tickets sold.
(v) Of which state were the minimum numbers of tickets sold?
Solution:
(i) The Bar graph shows the number lottery tickets sold by an agent on a day of different state.
(ii) 40 Lottery tickets were sold by the agent in Assam state.
(iii) In Haryana maximum numbers of tickets were sold are 100.
(iv) The given statement is false.
Reason:- Maximum tickets were sold is 100 in Haryana.
Minimum tickets were sold is 20 in Rajasthan.
The number 100 is equivalent to 5 times the number 20.
(v) In Rajasthan minimum numbers of tickets were sold are 20.
Question 5: Study the bar graph representing the number of persons in various age groups in a town shown in figure. Observe the bar graph and answer the following questions:
(i) What is the percentage of the youngest age-group persons over those in the oldest age group?
(ii) What is the total population of the town?
(iii) What is the number of persons in the age-group 60-65?
(iv) How many persons are more in the age-group 10-15 than in the age group 30-35?
(v) What is the age-group of exactly 1200 persons living in the town?
(vi) What is the total number of persons living in the town in the age-group 50-55?
(vii) What is the total number of persons living in the town in the age-groups 10-15 and 60-65?
(vii) Whether the population in general increases, decreases or remains constant with the increase in the age-group.
Solution:
(i) 10-15 years are youngest age-group. The number of persons of this group is 1400.
70 – 75 years are oldest age-group. The number of persons of this group is 300
1400/300 × 100 = 1400/3 = 466.67
(ii) Total Population of the town is :-
300 + 800 + 900 + 1000 + 1100 + 1200 + 1400 = 6700
(iii) 800 persons are belonging to group 60 – 65.
(iv) 1400 persons are belonging to group 10 – 15.
1100 persons are belonging to group 30-35.
Difference 1400 -1100 = 300
Hence, the 300 more persons in the age group 10 – 15 than the group 30-35.
(v) 1200 persons living in the town belonging to age group 20 – 25.
(vi) 900 persons living in the town belonging to age-group 50 – 55.
(vii) 1400 persons are belonging to group 10 – 15.
800 persons are belonging to group 60-65.
1400 + 800 = 2200.
Hence, the total number of persons living in the town belonging to age-groups 10 -15 and 60 – 65 is 2200.
(viii) We've seen that as the age group becomes older, the height of the bars declines. As a result, as the age demographic becomes older, the population shrinks.
Exercise 23.2
Question 1: Explain the reading and interpretation of bar graphs.
Solution:
A bar graph is made up of a series of horizontal or vertical bar lines or rectangles. Horizontal or vertical bar lines are possible. The understanding of a bar graph refers to how quickly we can gather information and draw different conclusions from a given bar graph.
Question 2: Read the following bar graph and answer the following questions:
(i) What information is given by the bar graph?
(ii) In which year the export is minimum?

Solution:
(i) From 1982-83 to 1986-87, the bar graph depicts the import and export (in 100 crores of rupees).
(ii) The export is minimum in 1982-83.
(iii) The import is maximum in 1986-87.
