Example 4
The table below depicts the number of employees 
in
factories across England and 
Wales from 1851 to 1901. 
In 1851 there is a staggering difference between the number of males and females 
employed with 287,100 and 190,000 respectively, making up a total of 477,100 
employees 
in 
225 factories. Within two decades
,
while the number of factories rises 
by almost three times to 622, the number of total employees drops by almost two-
thirds to 140,123. Employment is also significantly less male domina
ted
with 80,123 
males to 60,000 females. 
From 1871 to 1881 a further increase is seen in factories, now reaching 721. 
Following this increase the number of employees drops further to 126,132. From 
1881 to 1901 a steady decrease is seen in the number of factories dropping to 625 
in a decade and then to 600 by 1901. Despite a decrease in the number of factories, 
the number of employees continues to decrease, reaching only a mere 61,000 
in
600 
factories. However, the disparity between male and female employees is significantly 
reduced, as both are almost equally employed with 31,000 and 30,000 respectively. 
Overall a growth is observed in the number of factories in the fifty year period, while 
the number of total employees is reduced significantly.
