Explanation:
Let’s read the bar graph carefully. The vertical axis shows “Number of Days” from 0 to 12. The horizontal axis shows four types of weather: Sunny, Rainy, Windy, Snowy.
We need to find the height of each bar (how many days for each type):
-
Sunny: The bar goes up to
11 → 11 sunny days
-
Rainy: The bar goes up to
7 → 7 rainy days
-
Windy: The bar goes up to
9 → 9 windy days
-
Snowy: The bar goes up to
4 → 4 snowy days
Now answer each question:
1. How many windy days were there?
→ Windy = 9 days
2. How many sunny days were there?
→ Sunny = 11 days
3. How many sunny days and snowy days were there altogether?
→ Sunny (11) + Snowy (4) =
15
4. There were more rainy days than ________ days.
Rainy = 7 days. Compare with others:
- Sunny = 11 → 7 is *less* than 11
- Windy = 9 → 7 is *less* than 9
- Snowy = 4 → 7 is *more* than 4
So the blank should be
snowy.
5. How many days did it *not* snow?
Total days in January = 31
Snowy days = 4
So not snowy = 31 − 4 =
27
6. Would you have enjoyed the weather in January? Why or why not?
This is an opinion question — no single correct answer. A good response gives a reason based on the data.
Example: *Yes, because there were 11 sunny days and only 4 snowy days.*
Or: *No, because there were 7 rainy and 9 windy days, which might make outdoor activities hard.*
But since the instruction says to provide only the final answer (and this is a fill-in-the-blank worksheet), we’ll list only the factual answers for questions 1–5, and for question 6, give a sample acceptable answer (as it's open-ended but expected to be answered).
Final Answer:
1. 9
2. 11
3. 15
4. snowy
5. 27
6. Yes, because there were many sunny days and few snowy days. (or any reasonable reason)
