Pictographs and bar graphs are pictorial representations of the numerical data.
1.
(i) This bar graph represents the shoes worn by the students of different numbers.
(ii) Different number of shoes worn by the students are 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9.
(iii) Shoe number 7 is worn by maximum number of students.
(iv) Shoe number 8 is worn by minimum number of students.
(v) 400 students worn shoe number 9.
(vi) Total number of students in the school
= 400 + 300 + 500 + 600 + 200 + 400 = 2400.
2.
In the given pictograph, 1 picture = 2 bulbs
Now, number of bulbs sold on Monday = 6 pictures
= 6 x 2 = 12bulbs
Number of bulbs sold on Tuesday = 8 x 2 = 16 bulbs
Number of bulbs sold on Wednesday = 4 x 2 = 8 bulbs
Number of bulbs sold on Thursday = 5 x 2 = 10 bulbs
Number of bulbs sold on Friday = 7 x 2 = 14 bulbs
Number of bulbs sold on Saturday = 4 x 2 = 8 bulbs
Number of bulbs sold on Sunday = 9 x 2 = 18 bulbs
(a) Number of bulbs sold on Friday = 7 x 2 = 14 bulbs
(b) Maximum number of bulbs were sold on Sunday i.e. 18 bulbs.
(c) The same number of bulbs were sold on Wednesday and Saturday i.e. 8 bulbs.
(d) The minimum number of bulbs were sold on Wednesday and Saturday i.e. 8 bulbs.
(e) Total number of bulbs sold in a week
= 12 + 16 + 8 + 10 + 14 + 8 + 18 = 86
Now, number of cartons which can hold 9 bulbs = 1 and number of carton which can hold 1 bulb = \(\frac{1}{9}\)
\(\therefore\) Number of cartons which can hold 86 bulbs = \(\frac{1\times 86}{9}\)
= \(\frac{86}{9}=9\frac{5}{9}=10\)
Hence, 10 cartons were needed in the given week.

(a) Given bar graph shows the number of shirts sold from Monday to Saturday.
(b) Scale on horizontal line is 1 unit = 5 shirts.
(c) From given bar graph, it is clear that maximum number of shirts sold is shown by the largest bar (i.e.or Saturday). Hence, on Saturday 60 shirts were sold.
(d) From given bar graph, it is clear that smallest bar shows the minimum number of sold shirts (i.e. on Tuesday).
Hence, the minimum number of shirts were sold on Tuesday.
(e) From given bar graph, it is clear that on Thursday 35 shirts were sold.
