Yashwant gives different amounts of time as shown below, to different exercises he does during the week. Draw a bar graph to show the details of his schedule using an appropriate scale.

 Type of exercise Running Yogasanas Cycling Mountaineering Badminton Time 35 Minutes 50 minutes 1 hr 10 min 1 1/2 hours 45 minutes

#### Solution

Steps to draw the bar graph:

(1) In the centre of the graph paper, write the title "Exercises and time".

(2) Draw the X-axis and Y-axis, and mark O, their point of intersection.

(3) Write the type of exercise on the X-axis at equal distances.

(4) The time is taken on the Y-axis.

(5) Write the scale in the top right-hand corner i.e. 1 cm = 10 minutes on the Y-axis.

Here, 1 1/2 hours = 1 hour 30 minutes = 90 minutes, 1 hr 10 min = 70 minutes (1 hour = 60 minutes)

(6) Draw a bar of the appropriate height above the type of each exercise on the X-axis.
