The different numbers of plants were planted by the students of a school six days a week. This is shown in the pictograph given below.   Days Number of trees Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday 1  plant represents 12 plants What is the total number of plants planted in a week? Correct Answer 216

Concept used:

A pictograph is a graph that shows numerical information by using picture symbols or icons to represent data sets.

Calculation:

Number of plants planted on Monday = 3 × 12 = 36

Number of plants planted on Tuesday = 2 × 12 = 24

Number of plants planted on Wednesday = 4 × 12 = 48

Number of plants planted on Thursday = 5 × 12 = 60

Number of plants planted on Friday = 1 × 12 = 12

Number of plants planted on Saturday = 3 × 12 = 36

So, the total number of plants planted in a week = 36 + 24 + 48 + 60 + 12 + 36 = 216

∴ The total number of plants planted in a week is 216
