Is it true that the Jewellery sales in March is more than twice the sales in January?

• Yes

• No

• Cannot be determined from the bar chart

Which part of the graph is misleading?

• The year is not stated so we cannot compare across different years

• The difference in sales across the months is not obvious as their heights are similar

• The vertical axis does not start from zero so data may be misinterpreted

• it is difficult to compare the sales for each month and it can be either based on heights of bars or areas of bars
