When you have a question that requires you to look at a chart or graph then answer the question using math what are these types of questions called? are they just word problems or is there another name for them? any advice on how I can get better at doing these types of questions ?

Without some examples, it is difficult to be sure, but they seem to be, at least in part, problems testing comprehension.
 
one example would be where you have to look at a graph or chart that is from a work schedule that has a bunch of names and numbers on it then use math to answer the question. these types of questions require basic math but I always have trouble figuring out what kind of math to use.
