Grade 6 math worksheet asking students to interpret a horizontal bar graph showing the results of a fruit preference survey.

Let’s look at the bar graph carefully to answer each question.

The horizontal axis (bottom) shows numbers from 0 to 20 — this tells us how many children voted for each fruit.
Each bar’s length matches the number of votes for that fruit.

Question 1: How many children liked Grapes?

Look at the bar for “Grapes”. It ends halfway between 4 and 6. That means it’s at 5.

✔ So, 5 children liked Grapes.

Question 2: Which was the favourite fruit amongst these children?

The favourite fruit is the one with the longest bar — meaning the most votes.

Looking at all bars:
- Orange → 4
- Grapes → 5
- Apple → 14 (longest!)
- Banana → 10
- Plums → 2
- Pears → 8

Apple has the longest bar → Apple is the favourite.

Question 3: Which was the least favourite fruit for children?

Least favourite = shortest bar = fewest votes.

Plums have the shortest bar → only 2 votes.

So, Plums are the least favourite.

Question 4: How many children liked plums?

We just said — the bar for Plums goes to 2.

✔ So, 2 children liked plums.

---

Question 5: How many children liked Pears?

Look at the bar for “Pears”. It ends exactly at 8.

✔ So, 8 children liked Pears.
