Bar charts are one of the most popular ways of displaying data, as they can show large quantities of data in a way that is very easy to read. The bar chart below shows people's favourite desserts.

75
90 Example Question 1: How many people in total were asked what their favourite dessert was?
Answer: When we're asked this question, it's time to add up all of the bars to find out how many people were asked altogether.
Use the numbers on the y axis (up the side of the chart) to work out how many people chose each dessert.
75 + 45 + 30 + 15 + 30 + 60 + 15 = 270
Now use the bar chart to answer the questions below.
