Question

In a survey, respondents were asked which type of activity they enjoyed most while on vacation. The bar graph shows the responses of males and females.

How many more males than females said that swimming was their favorite activity?
I think it's 2.

Answer 1

Remember it is in units of 2 so between 10 and 12 it is 2 and the half between 8 and 10 is 1. 2+1=3

3 more males chose swimming

Answer 2

3 more males than females said that swimming was their favorite.

Explanation:

We have been given a bar graph in which blue box represents Male and orange box represents Female.

We need to tell how many more males than females said that swimming was their favorite

Number of female in swimming are: 9

And number of male in swimming are: 12

So, we need to find how many more male that means: 12-9=3

That means 3 more males.
