उत्तर

In order to construct a bar graph representing the above data, we follow the following steps:

Step I: Take a graph paper and draw two mutually perpendicular lines OX and Oy. Let OX as the horizontal axis and OY as the vertical axis.

Step II: Along OX, mark type of the plant and along OY, mark number of plants.

Step III: Choose a suitable scale to determine the heights of the bars, according to the availability of space. Here, we choose 1 unit length represents 10 plants.

Step IV: Calculate the height of various bars as follows

Type of the plants Height of bars
Herb `50/10` = 5 units
Shrub `60/10` = 6 units
Creeper `20/10` = 2 units
Climber `45/10` = 4.5 units
Tree `95/10` = 9.5 units

Hence, the required bar graph for the given data is shown below
Scale: 1 unit length = 10 plants

(a) On studying bar graph, tree is maximum in number in the garden.

(b) On studying bar graph, creeper plants is minimum in number in the garden.
