Question

Observe the bar graph and compute how much more is the total saving of Savita than the total saving of Megha?

Answer 1

Hint: To solve this given question, we will observe the bar graph of all the women. Focussing on the bar graph of Savita and Megha, we will see by comparing the height of the bar of the savings of Megha and Savita to calculate their total savings. And assume these values as some variables x and y. Finally, we will subtract them to get the results.

Complete step by step answer:
We are given the bar graph as

Because in our question, we are asked to find the total savings and the savings of some specific month. For example, April or March. So, we just have to consider the endpoint of one bar of the given bar graph. Observing the bar graph of Savita, we see that the height of Savita’s bar graph is 1000. So, the total savings of Savita is 1000. Let it be x,
\[x=1000\]
Now, observing the bar graph of Megha, we see that the height of the bar of Megha is near to 500. So, the total savings of Megha is 400. Let it be y.
\[y=400\]
Now, finally, we have to calculate how much more is the total savings of Savita than the total savings of Megha.
\[\Rightarrow x-y=1000-400\]
\[\Rightarrow x-y=600\]

Hence, the total savings of Savita is 500 more than the total savings of Megha.

Note: The key point to note in this question is that if the question was asked about the difference in the savings of Savita and Megha in some specific month like of April, then the answer would differ and the situation would not be the same. In that case, we would have calculated the savings of Savita and Megha in April separately and then subtracted them to get the result.
