Introduction to Data Interpretation

Direction: Study the following graph and answer the questions given below it.

  1. In how many of the given years was the production of salt more than the average production of the given years?
    1. 1
    2. 2
    3. 3
    4. 4
Correct Option: C

As per the given bar graph in question ,
Total production of salt from 2001 to 2008 = 40 + 30 + 70 + 25 + 55 + 50 + 80 + 90 = 440 × 1000 tonnes = 440000
Number of years from 2001 to 2008 = 8

Average production =
Total production of salt from 2001 to 2008
tonnes
Number of years from 2001 to 2008

Average production =
(40 + 30 + 70 + 25 + 55 + 50 + 80 + 90) × 1000
tonnes
8

Average production =
440
× 1000 = 55000 tonnes
8

Years having more production than it = 2003, 2007 and 2008
