In a bar graph, the height of the bars is relative to the frequency.
In a histogram, the area of the bars is relative to the frequency. Because it deals with area, the label on the y-axis is "frequency density" rather than just "frequency"

∙ 14y agoThe two graphs are similar, however, where a bar graph has spaces between the bars, the histogram has none

How are bar graphs and histograms and pie graphs similar?
they all compare different amounts
What graph is used for illustrating frequencies?
Most graphs: Pie charts, bar graphs, histograms, scatter graphs can all be used.
Which data is the best analyzed and communicated using histogram?
Histograms are like bar graphs but instead of being spaced, each bar is attached to the next. Histograms are ideal when you're trying to compare large amounts if data.
What is the similarity between bar graphs and histograms?
they both use bars to show data and show ranges of data aswell.
Can you do graphs or tables in Qualitative research?
Yes. Histograms, for example.

Graphs that use bars or wide lines to compare data visually are called what?
Bar charts or histograms.

How are bar graphs and line graphs and circle graphs different?
circle graphs add up to 100% , bar and line graphs don't

Yes. Histograms, for example.
Can someone provide an explanation on why that is and maybe give an website on where you found it and How come in histograms the bars connect but not in the bar graphs?
Bar graphs are used for qualitative or discrete [quantitative] data. Values between the bar categories are not possible an to emphasise that, the bars have gaps between them. Conversely, histograms are used for continuous data and so the values on the "category" axis form a continuum. To illustrate this, the bars touch on another. I learned this well before the internet was widely available so did not need a website.
Are a line graph and bar graph the same?
No! Bar and line graphs are different bar graphs show bars and line graph shows lines.
How many different graphs are there?
Bar, Line, Pie
How are bar graphs useful in geography?
Bar graphs in geography are useful for visualizing data such as population distributions, socio-economic statistics, climate trends, and natural resource availability. They can help geographers analyze and compare data sets, identify patterns and relationships, and present information in a clear and concise way for easier interpretation.
What do line graphs and bar graphs have in common?
Bar graphs and line graphs are designed to show different values of two or more subjects. They both organize data. They both use an x-axis and a y-axis.
