The bar graph shows the monthly expenditure of a family on different heads, in thousand rupees.

What is the total expenditure on all the heads?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → Rs 21000
Each unit on the vertical axis stands for Rs 1000, so the bar heights are added and multiplied by 1000.
Servant’s salary 1, conveyance 6, rent 4, food 5, fee 2, recreation 3
Total \(=1+6+4+5+2+3=21\) thousand
Total expenditure \(=21\times1000=\) Rs 21000
