The bar graph shows the number of sweaters sold at Daniel's shop.
- In May, Daniel sold ______ times as many sweaters as in April.
- Each sweater was sold for $50. How much did he earn for the month when he sold the most number of sweaters?
(a)
Number of sweaters that Daniel sold in May = 40
Number of sweaters that Daniel sold in April = 20
40 ÷ 20 = 2
In May, Daniel sold 2 times as many sweaters as in April.
(b)
To find the most number of sweaters sold in a month, look for the highest point in the line graph.
In March, Daniel sold the most number of sweaters.
Number of sweaters that Daniel sold in March = 100
Amount that Daniel earned for the month when he sold the most number of sweaters
= 100 x 50
= $5000
Answer(s): (a) 2; (b) $5000
