The bar graph shows the number of jackets sold at Ahmad's shop.
- In January, Ahmad sold ______ times as many jackets as in March.
- Each pair of jackets was sold for $20. How much did he earn for the month when he sold the most number of jackets?
(a)
Number of jackets that Ahmad sold in January = 40
Number of jackets that Ahmad sold in March = 20
40 ÷ 20 = 2
In January, Ahmad sold 2 times as many jackets as in March.
(b)
To find the most number of jackets sold in a month, look for the highest point in the line graph.
In February, Ahmad sold the most number of jackets.
Number of jackets that Ahmad sold in February = 90
Amount that Ahmad earned for the month when he sold the most number of jackets
= 90 x 20
= $1800
