Answer
  1. The bar graph represents the number of commercial banks in India during the respective years.
  2. In 1977, there were 130 commercial banks.

The height of the rectangle against the year 1977 is up to 130 units.
  1. Number of commercial banks in 1969 = 90
Number of commercial banks in 1980 = 150

Therefore, Ratio of the number of commercial banks in 1969 to that in $1980=\frac{90}{150}=\frac{3}{5}=3:5$
  1. False.
Explanation:

Number of commercial banks in 1983 = 230

Number of commercial banks in 1969 = 90

Therefore, 2 × 90 = 180

As 230 is greater than 180, the number of commercial banks in 1983 is not less than double the number of commercial banks in 1969.
