Answer 1

Given the graph below:

The above graph represents the number of first ladies from each state (Georgia, Ohio, New York, Massachusetts, and Virginia).

The state having the longest horizontal bar is the state having the highest number of first ladies, and the state having the shortest horizontal bar is the state having the least number of first ladies.

From the graph, New York has the longest bar. This implies that Newyork has the highest number of first ladies.

Hence, we can conclude that most of the first ladies are from New York.

The correct option is D.
