The horizontal axis represent the subject and the vertical axis represents the score. The above bar graph represents Brett's scores in each of his subjects.

Brett's score in English was 60. It is given that Luke's score in English is 15% more than Brett.

So Luke score is \frac{15}{100}\times60+60=9+60=69

Luke scored 69 points.
