Question

The number of fish sold at a fish market during a certain week is shown in the pictograph below. What is the total number of fish sold on Tuesday and Wednesday?

Answer 1

Answer: We have to find the total fish sold or fish sold on Tuesday and Wednesday combined, the total fish is:

`\begin{gathered} \text{ Tuesday }\Rightarrow5+5+(5)/(2)=10+2(1)/(2)=12(1)/(2) \\ \\ \\ \\ \text{ Wednesday }\Rightarrow5+5+5+5+5+5+5+2(1)/(2)=35+2(1)/(2)=37(1)/(2) \\ \\ \\ \\ T=F_T+F_W=12(1)/(2)+37(1)/(2)=50 \\ \\ \\ \\ T=50\text{ }\rightarrow\text{ Total fish} \end{gathered}`

The answer is Option (D).
