The line graph illustrates numbers of men and women attending different courses at an adult education centre in 2009. The pie chart also shows the percentages of participants by age in these courses.
Overall, women predominated in three courses, and only the sculpture course had more men than women. The pie chart shows that people over 40 years old make up the main part of the participants in these courses. The other three age categories showed slightly lower percentages.
Considering the bar chart first, women predominated in three courses, and men predominated in only the sculpture course. In detail, there were twice as many women as men in the drama course—20 women and 10 men, respectively. Similarly, twice as many women as men participated in the language course—40 women and 20 men, respectively. The bar chart also shows that 5 more women than men participated in painting—25 women and 30 men, respectively. By contrast, 10 men participated in the sculpture course, twice as many as the women.
Moreover, the pie chart illustrates that people aged 50 and over were the largest group of course participants, makingup 42%. The second largest group of participants, at 26%, were aged between 40 and 49. The other age groups showed slightly lower percentages than these two groups: 30–39 year olds at 16%, 20–29 year olds at 11%, and those under 20 at 5%, respectively.
