London underground station passengers 24 hours a day

The single line graph is on hourly break down of number of people who use London underground station on a given day. Figures are in hundreds every hour.

It is evident that 8.00 hours and 18.00 hours are the peak times of the day. The highest number of passengers uses London underground station during these two hours. It is 400 passengers. And the least busy times of the day are 8.00 hours, 16.00 hours, 20.00 and 22.00 hours. During these times the numbers of passengers stand around 100. However, in between 10.00 and 15.00, the numbers remain more or less same, 100 or slightly above 100.

Over all, it is clear that morning hours normally have the highest passenger density; from 100 passengers at 8.00 to a four times higher number of 400. So is the case with 16.00 hours. There is almost four times increase within two hours.

Bar graph on spending on three sectors, defense, education and R& D.

Bar graph is on spending on education, research and development and defense in India for four years starting from 2002. Figures are in million Indian Rupees.

To being with, defense is biggest revenue spender in all four periods. In 2002 it was 100 million. In the adjacent financial years, it had a constant increase of 20 million each with 2005 touching 160 million mark.

Education is the least allocated area. It received 40 million rupees in 2002 which was just 40% of what was allocated for defense. In the following year, this figure got doubled, and in 2004, it touched 100 million mark. The highest allocation was 120 million in 2005, a three fold increase in four years’.

Let’s take a look at research and development in the corresponding periods. Here, though we find an upward spiral over two years with 2000 getting 60 million followed by 100 million in 2003, 2004 witnessed a sharp fall. It fell back to 2002 figure of 60 million. However, there was a phenomenal increase in allocation; from 60 million to 140 million in 2005.

It is clear that when defense took the biggest chuck of India’s national revenue, education received the least.

Expenditure on fast foods by income groups

The bar graph on expenditure on fast foods by income groups in the UK in 1990 shows that high income group spent the most on Hamburger, above 40 pence per person per week. This is followed by average income group which set aside more than 30 pence a week. When it comes to low income group, the spending fell to below 15 pence per week.

If we look at the figures of Fish and Chips and pizzas, the high income group spared hardly fifty percent of what was used for hamburger. But the difference with regard to average income group did not differ much. It came down to 25 pence. The low income group went with 15 pence.

Finally, let us see how pizza as a fast food faired among these groups. When high income group set aside about 20 pence, the average group’s share was above 10 pence and the low income group’s was the least, above five pence.

While hamburger remained popular among high and average income groups, fish and chips were the favourite of low income group. 165 words
