Answer 2

Answer:

40+62+58+43+36+55+41+28+31+37+75+64= 570 people

Step-by-step explanation:

If you add all the no.of people who rode the bus, you will get the answer since the qn is 'how many' which refers to the number of people and 'rode the bus over the course of the day' which means throughout the day and as you said, the graph given above is number of passengers who rode bus throughout the day. Also, do not look at the time given, it is useless according to the question.

I hope it helps.
