Solution:

Reading and interpretation of the bar graph:
The first step in reading a bar graph is to know what it represents or what is the information given by it. For this, we read the captions which are generally written just below the horizontal line (x-axis) and adjacent to vertical line (y-axis). After knowing that what does a bar graph represent we read the scale so that we can know the precise values in the given data.

After reading a bar graph one must be able to draw certain conclusions from it. Drawing some conclusions from a given bar graph means interpretation of the bar graph.
