The bar graph shows the number of windbreakers sold at Caden's shop.
- In September, Caden sold ______ times as many windbreakers as in December.
- Each windbreaker was sold for $70. How much did he earn for the month when he sold the least number of windbreakers?
(a)
Number of windbreakers that Caden sold in September = 60
Number of windbreakers that Caden sold in December = 30
60 ÷ 30 = 2
In September, Caden sold 2 times as many windbreakers as in December.
(b)
To find the least number of windbreakers sold in a month, look for the lowest point in the line graph.
In November, Caden sold the least number of windbreakers.
Number of windbreakers that Caden sold in November = 20
Amount that Caden earned for the month when he sold the least number of windbreakers
= 20 x 70
= $1400
Answer(s): (a) 2; (b) $1400
