The graph below outlines paper and plastic cup production at a factory over the 
period of one year. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main 
features and make comparisons where relevant. 
The given column graph shows the production of paper and plastic cups over the course of 
one year. No obvious correlation between the manufacturing levels of each cup type can be 
seen in the graph.
 
In January and March, about 1.1 million paper cups are manufactured. In between these two 
months the figure peaks at roughly 1.7 million in February and 1.8 million in April. 1.2 
million paper cups are manufactured in May, June and July. After that there is a gradual 
decrease and by September, the production reaches 1 million cups. This number jumps to 
approximately 1.5 million units in October. Paper cup levels finish the year at slightly less 
than 1.2 million.
 
Plastic cups commence the year at 1.2 million units. Throughout the year there are 
fluctuations. The months of February, April, June, August, September and December all 
hover at roughly a million finished products each. Between these months, however, 
production values rise to varying levels, the highest of these being in July at 1.75 million 
Overall, fluctuations are seen in the production of paper and plastic cups all over the year. 
The least production of both is seen in September.
