The bar graph shows the number of blazers sold at Mark's shop.
- In January, Mark sold ______ times as many blazers as in March.
- Each pair of blazers was sold for $30. How much did he earn for the month when he sold the most number of blazers?
(a)
Number of blazers that Mark sold in January = 40
Number of blazers that Mark sold in March = 10
40 ÷ 10 = 4
In January, Mark sold 4 times as many blazers as in March.
(b)
To find the most number of blazers sold in a month, look for the highest point in the line graph.
In February, Mark sold the most number of blazers.
Number of blazers that Mark sold in February = 100
Amount that Mark earned for the month when he sold the most number of blazers
= 100 x 30
= $3000
Answer(s): (a) 4; (b) $3000
