The chart below shows the total number of minutes (in billions) of telephone calls in the UK, divided into three categories, from 1995-2002.
Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.
Answer:
The bar graph displays the time spent on three different types of phone call in United Kingdom from 1995 to 2002.
Overall, it is apparent that over the period, maximum time was spent on local calls whereas mobile calls were least popular.
The minutes spent on local calls fluctuated over the years, with only 70 billion minutes in 1995. However, it increased steadily and reached a peak of 90 billion minutes in both 1998 and 1999, before dropping to again 70 billion minutes in 2002.
Both national and international, and mobile calls showed an upward trend. The minutes spent on international and notional calls increased gradually from 35 billion minutes in 1995 and reached to 60 billion minutes by 2002. Despite being less popular to other phone calls, time spent on mobile calls grew dramatically from just 3 billion minutes in 1995 to 22 billion minutes in 2000. Finally, it doubled to 45 billion minutes in 2002.
