Explanation:
Let’s read the bar graph carefully. The vertical axis shows “Number of days” from 0 to 10. The horizontal axis shows weather types: Sunny, Cloudy, Windy, Rainy, Snowy.
We need to find the height (value) of each bar:
-
Sunny: The yellow bar reaches
7 → 7 sunny days
-
Cloudy: The blue bar reaches
3 → 3 cloudy days
-
Windy: The red bar reaches
5 → 5 windy days
-
Rainy: The green bar reaches
9 → 9 rainy days
-
Snowy: The purple bar reaches
8 → 8 snowy days
Now answer each question:
1. How many days were sunny?
→ Sunny = 7 → Answer:
c. 7
2. How many days were rainy?
→ Rainy = 9 → Answer:
b. 9
3. How many more snowy days than cloudy days?
Snowy = 8, Cloudy = 3
8 − 3 =
5 → Answer:
b. 5
4. How many fewer windy days than rainy days?
Rainy = 9, Windy = 5
9 − 5 =
4 → Answer:
a. 4
5. How many days were sunny and snowy?
Sunny = 7, Snowy = 8
7 + 8 =
15 → Answer:
c. 15
Let me double-check all values from the graph:
- Sunny: bar ends at 7
✔
- Cloudy: bar ends at 3
✔
- Windy: bar ends at 5
✔
- Rainy: bar ends at 9
✔
- Snowy: bar ends at 8
✔
All calculations match.
Final Answer:
1. c
2. b
3. b
4. a
5. c
