Q.19Medium
The pie chart shows the annual budget of a company (total = ₹24 crore). The sector for 'Marketing' subtends an angle of 75° at the centre. What is the amount allocated to Marketing?
Answer: B
Understanding:
We must find the amount allocated to Marketing given its sector angle and the total budget.
•Total budget=₹24 crore
•Sector angle for Marketing=75°
Formula:
The share of a sector is proportional to its angle out of 360°:
Amount=360°Sector angle×Total
Step 1: Substitute values.
Amount=36075×24=36075×24=3601800=5
Answer:
The amount allocated to Marketing is ₹5 crore.
₹5 crore
Quick Tip:
A sector angle of 75° represents 36075=245 of the total — always simplify the fraction first to make multiplication faster.
Q.20Medium
A pie chart represents the expenditure of a family. The sectors (in degrees) are: Food =126°, Rent =90°, Education =72°, Clothing =36°, Savings =36°. If the total monthly income is ₹18,000, how much is spent on Rent and Education together?
Answer: C
Understanding:
We must find the combined expenditure on Rent and Education.
•Rent angle=90°
•Education angle=72°
•Total income=₹18,000
Formula:
Expenditure=360°Combined angle×Total income
Step 1: Add the two angles.
90°+72°=162°
Step 2: Calculate the combined expenditure.
Expenditure=360162×18000=209×18000=9×900=8100
Answer:
The combined expenditure on Rent and Education is ₹8,100.
₹8,100
Quick Tip:
Simplify 360162=209 before multiplying — it avoids large intermediate numbers.
