The bar graph shows the number of blazers sold at Ethan's shop.
- In November, Ethan sold ______ times as many blazers as in October.
- Each blazer was sold for $20. How much did he earn for the month when he sold the most number of blazers?
(a)
Number of blazers that Ethan sold in November = 80
Number of blazers that Ethan sold in October = 40
80 ÷ 40 = 2
