Best answer

Answer:

(1) It is a bar graph (percentage bar graph) with grouped bars for two countries.

(2) The graph shows, for the year 2016, the percentage of the population engaged in tourism and the contribution of tourism to the GDP in Brazil and India.

(3) Brazil — tourism contributes about 9.5% of its GDP, against about 7% in India.

(4) About 9% of India's population is engaged in tourism.

(5) The difference is 9 − 7 = 2%; a larger share of India's population works in tourism than in Brazil.

(6) India — about 9% of its people are engaged in tourism, but tourism contributes only about 7% of its GDP, less than Brazil's 9.5%.
