The bar graph shows the number of jumpsuits sold at Ahmad's shop.
- In January, Ahmad sold ______ times as many jumpsuits as in March.
- Each pair of jumpsuits was sold for $50. How much did he earn for the month when he sold the most number of jumpsuits?
(a)
Number of jumpsuits that Ahmad sold in January = 40
Number of jumpsuits that Ahmad sold in March = 10
40 ÷ 10 = 4
In January, Ahmad sold 4 times as many jumpsuits as in March.
(b)
To find the most number of jumpsuits sold in a month, look for the highest point in the line graph.
In February, Ahmad sold the most number of jumpsuits.
Number of jumpsuits that Ahmad sold in February = 100
Amount that Ahmad earned for the month when he sold the most number of jumpsuits
= 100 x 50
= $5000
Answer(s): (a) 4; (b) $5000
