The number of active military and employed workers jumped at the same time.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The number of active military and employed workers jumped at the same time.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can clearly infer from the chart that as the number of employed workers increased so does the active military participation. From the year 1916 to 1917 the number of employed workers increased from 40.1 million to 41.5 and for the same period, the number of active military members increased from 0.18 million to 0.84 million. The same pattern of progression can be inferred for the subsequent year that is from 1917 to 1918. Therefore from the data shown in the chart we can say that both variables jumped at the same time.
