  1. A bar chart shows law firm revenues (in $millions): Firm A = 12, Firm B = 18, Firm C = 9, Firm D = 21. What percentage of total revenue does Firm B represent?

    Answer: 30%

    Total revenue = 12+18+9+21 = 60; Firm B share = 18/60 × 100 = 30%.

  2. A table shows case filings per quarter: Q1=240, Q2=180, Q3=300, Q4=280. What is the average number of cases filed per quarter?

    Answer: 250

    Sum = 240+180+300+280 = 1000; average = 1000/4 = 250.

  3. A pie chart shows court case types: Criminal 40%, Civil 35%, Family 15%, Administrative 10%. In a court with 800 total cases, how many are Civil cases?

    Answer: 280

    Civil cases = 35% of 800 = 0.35 × 800 = 280.

  4. A line graph shows a solicitor's billable hours over 5 months: Jan=120, Feb=135, Mar=110, Apr=150, May=145. Which month showed the greatest increase from the previous month?

    Answer: April

    April increased by 40 hours (110→150), which is the largest single-month increase.

  5. A table shows barrister success rates: Firm X = 72%, Firm Y = 68%, Firm Z = 80%, Firm W = 65%. If Firm Z handled 250 cases, approximately how many did it win?

    Answer: 200

    80% of 250 = 0.80 × 250 = 200 cases won.

  6. A two-column table shows court fees collected in Year 1 ($45,000) and Year 2 ($54,000). What is the percentage increase from Year 1 to Year 2?

    Answer: 20%

    Percentage increase = (54,000−45,000)/45,000 × 100 = 9,000/45,000 × 100 = 20%.

  7. A chart shows legal aid grants by region: North=450, South=380, East=520, West=310. The East region's grants represent approximately what fraction of the total?

    Answer: 1/3

    Total = 450+380+520+310 = 1660; East = 520/1660 ≈ 0.313, which is closest to 1/3.
