Calculating Total Pages Printed by Printers A to E

The question asks for the total number of pages printed by all five printers (A, B, C, D, and E) over the five days from Monday to Friday. To find this, we need to sum up the pages printed by each printer on each day.

We can calculate the total number of pages printed each day by summing the pages printed by all printers on that specific day. Then, we sum up these daily totals to get the grand total.

Step 1: Calculate the Total Pages Printed Each Day

Let's sum the pages printed by printers A, B, C, D, and E for each day:

  • Monday: $25 + 20 + 35 + 15 + 25$
  • Tuesday: $40 + 15 + 30 + 20 + 20$
  • Wednesday: $22 + 11 + 33 + 40 + 20$
  • Thursday: $32 + 42 + 32 + 30 + 22$
  • Friday: $36 + 36 + 37 + 35 + 25$
Day Printer A Printer B Printer C Printer D Printer E Total Pages (Day)
Monday 25 20 35 15 25 $25 + 20 + 35 + 15 + 25 = 120$
Tuesday 40 15 30 20 20 $40 + 15 + 30 + 20 + 20 = 125$
Wednesday 22 11 33 40 20 $22 + 11 + 33 + 40 + 20 = 126$
Thursday 32 42 32 30 22 $32 + 42 + 32 + 30 + 22 = 158$
Friday 36 36 37 35 25 $36 + 36 + 37 + 35 + 25 = 169$

Step 2: Calculate the Grand Total Pages Printed Over Five Days

Now, we sum the daily totals calculated in Step 1 to find the total number of pages printed by all printers over the five days:

Grand Total = Total (Monday) + Total (Tuesday) + Total (Wednesday) + Total (Thursday) + Total (Friday)

Grand Total = $120 + 125 + 126 + 158 + 169$

Let's add these values:

  • $120 + 125 = 245$
  • $245 + 126 = 371$
  • $371 + 158 = 529$
  • $529 + 169 = 698$

So, the total number of pages printed by all printers in five days is 698.

Grand Total 698

The total number of pages printed by all printers A to E during Monday to Friday is 698.

Additional Information - Data Interpretation Basics

Data interpretation questions often involve extracting information from tables, charts, or graphs and performing calculations or comparisons. Key steps usually include:

  • Carefully reading the question to understand what is being asked (e.g., total, average, ratio, percentage change).
  • Identifying the relevant data points in the table or chart.
  • Performing the necessary calculations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, percentage calculations).
  • Ensuring units are consistent if required.
  • Double-checking calculations to avoid errors.

In this question, the task was straightforward addition of all values presented in the table to find the grand total of pages printed by all printers over the specified period.
