Let’s solve each question step by step using the pictograph.
First, remember:
Each donut picture = 5 actual donuts sold.

Question 1: How many donuts did he sell on Thursday?
Look at Thursday’s row:
There are
5 donut pictures.
So, 5 pictures × 5 donuts each =
25 donuts
✔ Answer for Q1:
25

Question 2: Which day did he sell the least donuts?
Count the donut pictures per day:
- Monday: 3 → 3 × 5 = 15
- Tuesday: 4 → 4 × 5 = 20
- Wednesday: 2 → 2 × 5 = 10 ← smallest!
- Thursday: 5 → 5 × 5 = 25
- Friday: 6 → 6 × 5 = 30
Wednesday has only 2 pictures → that’s the least.
✔ Answer for Q2:
Wednesday

Question 3: Which day did he sell the most donuts?
From above:
Friday has 6 pictures → 6 × 5 = 30 → highest number!
✔ Answer for Q3:
Friday

Question 4: Which day did he sell 20 donuts?
We need to find which day equals 20 donuts.
Since each picture = 5 donuts, then:
20 ÷ 5 = 4 pictures needed.
Which day has exactly 4 donut pictures?
→ Tuesday has 4 pictures → 4 × 5 = 20
✔ Answer for Q4:
Tuesday

Final Answer:
1. 25
2. Wednesday
3. Friday
4. Tuesday
