The line graph illustrates the percentage rate of the United Kingdom’s young population

according to

their

age

group in the

years

1990 and 2001.

Overall

, as observed the higher population in the 1990s belongs to the

age

groups

0-4 and 15-19 and followed by the

age

groups

5-9 and 10-14. A notable significant shift can be seen in the young teen group in the

years

1992,1997, and 2000, which superseded three

age

groups

. Those 0 - 4 categories gained more than 26% in 1990, which was the highest percentage at the beginning; the figure went downwards until 1993 and remain plateaued for two

years

, rising slowly and ending with exactly 25% by 2001. Closely followed by the 15-19 category at under 26% and shows a small increase of about half per cent in 1992.

However

, it steadily plummeted to the lowest point by 2001 (just below 24.5%). Trailing behind aged 5-9 at roughly 24.5% at the start,

this

number considerably climbed until 1997 (just above 26%) and slowly decrease in the following

years

by an estimated 1% (2001). Far behind aged 10-14 at just above 23%, which was the lowest. Albeit, a sizable continuous increase noted and surpassed the three

age

groups

throughout the

years

ending at approximately below 27%.
