The graph below shows the average consumption of cheese per person in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland between 1980 to 2020.
SAMPLE ANSWER
The chart illustrates the average amount of cheese eaten by citizens of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland from 1980 to 2020.
Overall, England’s figures declined steadily throughout the period and Scotland saw a significant decline by the end, whereas people in Wales and in Northern Ireland both increased their cheese consumption during these decades.
Despite being the largest consumer of cheese for each decade, England’s figures fell consistently from roughly 112 kg in 1980 to approximately 88 kg in 2020. Meanwhile, Scotland started with about 85kg before jumping to roughly 105 kg in 1990. From that point, the figures dropped significantly until it was down to approximately 55 kg in 2020.
Wales went from having the second-lowest figure in 1980, roughly 45 kg, to having the
second-highest average consumption of cheese in 2020 with approximately 80 kg after increasing throughout the entire period. Northern Ireland showed increases every decade and went from about 12 kg in the beginning to roughly 60 kg.
