The charts below give information about Australia marriage and divorce rates between 1960 and 1990, and the marital status of adult Australians in two of the years.
Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant.
Sample Answer:-
The bar graph depicts the statistical data about the figures of marriage and divorce in Australia from 1960 to 1990, whereas another one reveals about the status of marriage of adult Australians in 1950 and 2000.
It can be clearly seen from the first bar graph that in 1960, number of marriages was 3 times more than that of divorces that was 3 million and 1 million respectively. Next, the number of marriages increased by 0.5 million in the next decade but then decreased till 1990 and reached at 2.5 million. On the contrary, the number of divorce rose in 1970 and then stayed constant at 1.5 million till the last year.
Furthermore, the second graph shows that in 1950, the percentage of married adult Australians was highest that accounted for 80%. It was followed by never married adults with approximately 30%, while the figures of 2 out of 4 elevated who were never married and divorced adults, while figures of married adults plunged to 60% and widowed to around 5%.
Overall, it is apparent that number of marriages and of married adults was more than divorces in all the given years and married people marked the highest population.
