Draw a percentage Bar graph for the following data

Divisions	A	B	C	D
Total strength	65	56	54	50
Students passed in English	36	42	27	23

Answer 1

Hint: To determine the bar graph of the data given below, initially we should find the Percentage of students passed in English subject from the given data. That is total strength of Divisions A, B, C and D and the Students passed in English in each division respectively. Using the Percentage of students passed in English we have to plot the bar graph of division verses Percentage of students passed in English.

Complete step-by-step answer:
Firstly Percentage of the students passed in English should be calculated using the formula,
Percentage of students passed in English = \[\dfrac{Students\text{ }passed\text{ }in\text{ }English}{Total\text{ }strength}\times 100\]
Now, let us tabulate the given data as with a column for Percentage of students passed in English as below,
 

Divisions	Total strength	Students passed in English	% Students passed in English
A	65	36	55.4%
B	56	42	75%
C	54	27	50%
D	50	23	46%

The required bar chart will be as below,

Note: It is necessary for students to know the formula to find the Percentage of students passed in English from the given data to proceed with the problem. Then plotting the data in the bar graph helps us for pictorial representation of the content. Students sometimes can go wrong while tabulation of the data.
