The bar chart and graph illustrate information about the

joiners

who have participated in the Olympics since it began. In general, the

number

of

participants

in the competition was increased from 1924 to 2012. By the way, the

number

of males is always higher than females. Having looked at the bar chart, we can see that the

number

of female

participants

in 1924 was the lowest at around 100; meanwhile, the

number

of male

joiners

was higher than females at around 3000. Between 1952 and 1984, the

number

of male

joiners

had a slight increase from 4500 to 5100 and the

number

of female

joiners

increased from 600 to 1500 respectively. In 2012, the

number

of male

participants

increased and reached its highest point at around 6000 and the

number

of females significantly grew and reached its highest

number

at around 4600. Regarding the line graph, the

number

of

participants

at around 3000 in the first year before rising to 5000 in 1952. Between 1984 and 2012 the

number

of

participants

still increased from 6500 to 10500 and reached the highest point in the

last

year. Thanks to the continuous fluctuation, the

number

of

participants

has jumped impressively from 3000 to 10500.

Besides

that, we can see the

number

of male

participants

is always higher than female

joiners

in each year.
