Question

According to the data displayed on the chart above, what conclusions can be drawn about the relationship between income and literacy in sub-Saharan Africa?

Answer 1

Answer:

Higher literacy rates do not necessarily result in higher income levels

Explanation:

Higher literacy rates do not necessarily result in higher income levels

Literacy Rate was 91% in  Zimbabwe yet the percentage of people living on less than $1 per day was 56%.Thus, literacy rates do not necessarily result in higher income levels.

Answer 2

Answer:

The country with the highest literacy rate still has more than 56% of its population living on less than $1 a day. The country with the lowest literacy rate has about the same percentage of its population living on less than $1 a day. The country with the lowest poverty rate also has a very low literacy rate, at just 65%. There does not seem to be a correlation between literacy and income, as even countries with higher literacy rates do not necessarily see economic benefits.
