Solution

6. For the following table, draw a bar-graph
Solution

7. Manoj appeared for ICSE examination 2018 and secured percentage of marks as shown in the following table:
Represent the above data by drawing a suitable bar graph.
Solution

8: For the data given above in question number 7, draw a suitable pie-graph.
Solution
∵ 60 + 45 + 42 + 48 + 75 = 270
∴ Central angle for Hindi = 60/270 × 360˚ = 80˚
Central angle for English = 45/270 × 360˚ = 60˚
Central angle for Maths = 42/270 × 360˚ = 45˚
Central angle for Hindi = 48/270 × 360˚ = 64˚
And Central angle Social study = 72/270 × 360˚ = 100˚
