Question: A bar graph was drawn to show the percentage of cloud cover every two hours in a day. At what time was the percentage of cloud cover maximum?
A ) 8:00 A.M. B ) 6:00 P.M. C ) 2:00 P.M. D ) 10:00 A.M.
Steps to derive
1 The height of each bar in the graph represents the percentage of cloud cover at a particular time on the day.
2 So, the percentage of cloud cover is maximum when the height of the bar is maximum.
3 From the figure, the height of the bar at 8:00 A.M. is the maximum.
4 So, the percentage of cloud cover was maximum at 8:00 A.M. on the day.
