they are the same  by looking at the picture

Answer:

A. The number of candies in the bags from Brand B is greater and more consistent than the number of candies in the bags from Brand A.

Step-by-step explanation:

By looking the graph we see that number of candies from the bag of Brand B is greater than bag of Brand A as:

Number of candies in bag of Brand A= 52 + 52 + 53 + 55 +55 + 57+ 58 +58 +62 = 502 candies

Number of candies in bag of Brand B = 45 + 45 + 52 + 52 +55 + 62 +65 + 67 + 70 + 68 = 581 candies

And also we see that in bag of Brand B the spread in large in comparison of bag of Brand A.

Hence, option A is correct.
