being compared.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"eplus-wrapper\">The x-axis represents the values corresponding to each data category.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">Let\u2019s see examples of horizontal bar graphs to understand this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\"><strong>Example 1:<\/strong> A horizontal bar graph of the favorite color of 50 students is shown below. On the y-axis, you can see the data categories (different colors).

Bar Graphs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">The scale of a bar graph describes the relation between the unit length of the bar and the quantity it represents. The scale makes it easier to measure or quantify the given data.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">For example: If the scale of a bar graph is 1 unit = 5 objects, then the bar having 2 units length represents 10 objects. This way, you don\u2019t have to draw a 10 unit long bar to represent 10 objects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\" id=\"3-drawing-horizontal-bar-graphs\">Drawing Horizontal Bar Graphs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">How do we draw or plot horizontal bar graphs?&nbsp;Let\u2019s understand it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\"><strong>Step 1:<\/strong> Draw the two axes of the graph\u2014the vertical X-axis and the horizontal Y-axis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\"><strong>Step 2: <\/strong>The category that has to be compared is represented on the Y-axis.

Simple Horizontal Bar Graphs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">In simple horizontal bar graphs, the categories are compared based on a single parameter. For example, you can compare the rainfall in different cities. However, you cannot compare the rainfall and the sunshine in different cities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\"><strong>2. Double Horizontal Bar Graphs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">In double horizontal bar graphs, you can compare different categories based on two parameters. For example, you can compare rainfall and sunshine in different cities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\"><strong>3. Multiple Horizontal Bar Graphs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">In multiple horizontal bar graphs, you can compare categories based on various parameters. For example, you can compare rainfall, sunshine, temperatures, and humidity across different cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\" id=\"5-the-benefits-of-horizontal-bar-graphs\">The Benefits of Horizontal Bar Graphs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">The benefits of <strong>horizontal bar graphs<\/strong> are that the categories are easier to view when you look at the chart. These bar graphs are also easier to view on smaller devices like phones.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">Further, it is also easier to visualize and compare the data based on the bar length and the bar color. For example, in a graph about pollutant levels, the measure of a pollutant can be indicated by the length of the bars. The color of the bar can indicate whether the pollutant levels are hazardous or not.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\" id=\"6-are-vertical-or-horizontal-bar-graphs-better\">Are Vertical or Horizontal Bar Graphs Better?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">Vertical <strong>bar graph advantages<\/strong> include scope for longer bars since there is more space for them to fit on the page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">Horizontal bar graphs tend to be better for data with fewer categories or where the items being compared are very important.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\" id=\"7-what-are-the-other-types-of-bar-charts\">What Are the Other Types of Bar Charts?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">The other types of bar charts are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"eplus-wrapper wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"eplus-wrapper\">Stacked bar graphs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"eplus-wrapper\">Clustered bar graphs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"eplus-wrapper\">Percentage bar diagrams<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\" id=\"8-facts-about-horizontal-bar-graph\">Facts about Horizontal Bar Graph<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"color:#0369a1;background-color:#e0f2fe\" class=\"wp-block-roelmagdaleno-callout-block has-text-color has-background is-layout-flex wp-container-roelmagdaleno-callout-block-is-layout-8cf370e7 wp-block-roelmagdaleno-callout-block-is-layout-flex\"><div>\n<ul class=\"eplus-wrapper wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"eplus-wrapper\">The title of the <strong>horizontal bar graph<\/strong> tells us about the data being represented by the graph.
