9. What jobs are these:

10. Which type of job: (copy and
answer)
 1. Pays the least?
 2. Pays the most?
 3. Is most common in NZ?
 4. Is most common in India?

11. Which type of job: (copy and

 1. Pays the least? Primary
 2. Pays the most? Tertiary and quaternary
 3. Is most common in NZ? Tertiary
 4. Is most common in India? Primary

12. Lets look at the stats:
JOB SECTOR INDIA NZ
Primary 52 7
Secondary 14 19
Tertiary +
quaternary
34 74
Draw a % bar graphs for India and then one for NZ to show this information
A reminder of how to draw a percentage bar graph is on the next 2 slides

13. Drawing a percentage bar graph
 Give graph a title e.g. Percentage bar graph of
job type in India
 Rule a bar that is EXACTLY 10cm long and 3 cm
high.
e.g.
 Rule up a key
e.g.
10cm
3cm
KEY
Primary Sector
Secondary Sector
Tertiary/Quarternary Sector

14.  Each 1mm along on your bar equals 1%
 Start plotting and putting in your data
e.g. for India primary sector you would measure
along 5.2cm, then rule a line and shade in red.
The next portion would start from the line you just
drew
 Don’t forget you need to draw one percentage
bar graph for NZ and one for India
5.2cm ? cm ? cm

15. Answer the following questions
based on your graphs
 What does this lead to?
 Where are most of the Tertiary jobs in
India?
