Problem:
The values shown are the total number of workers in each department and the total weekly hours the department’s workers spend using each software package. You have been asked to prepare a spreadsheet summarizing this data and comparing the use of the various packages across departments.
A. Create a spreadsheet illustrating each application’s average use per department. To do this, you will first enter the data shown below. Then compute the average weekly spreadsheet use by dividing spreadsheet hours by the number of Sales workers. Do this for each department. Repeat these three calculations for both database and presentation use. Round results to the nearest 1/100th.
B. Create a three-dimensional bar graph illustrating the averages by department and software package.
