Consider the following information about the number of students in various
classes of a school.
Class I II III IV V VI
Number of students 28 32 40 24 36 32
Let us draw a bar graph to depict this information.

Every bar graph must have :
« A title explaining the information given in the graph.
« The horizontal and vertical scales.
« The labels explaining the scales.
Just like a pictograph, a bar helps us to compare the information and
understand it better. Here, by looking at the bar graph we can see that :
Class III has the most number of students.
Class IV has the least number of students.
