As per the given pie chart in question ,
Percentage expenditure on (football + basket ball + cricket) = (15 + 12.5 + 25)% = 52.5%
Percentage expenditure on (tennis + hockey + golf) = (10 + 15 + 12.5)% = 37.5%
∴ Required ratio = Percentage expenditure on (football + basket ball + cricket) : Percentage expenditure on (tennis + hockey + golf)Correct Option: B
As per the given pie chart in question ,
Percentage expenditure on (football + basket ball + cricket) = (15 + 12.5 + 25)% = 52.5%
Percentage expenditure on (tennis + hockey + golf) = (10 + 15 + 12.5)% = 37.5%
∴ Required ratio = Percentage expenditure on (football + basket ball + cricket) : Percentage expenditure on (tennis + hockey + golf)
∴ Required ratio = 52.5 : 37.5 = 7 : 5

As per the given pie chart in question ,
The corresponding angle of year 2012 = 105°
The corresponding angle of year 2011 = 75°
Total Increase = 105° - 75° = 30°Percentage increase = Total Increase × 100 The corresponding angle of year 2011 Percentage increase in 2012 in comparison to 2011 = 3000 = 40 75
The corresponding angle of year 2013 = 135°
The corresponding angle of year 2012 = 105°
Total Increase = 135° - 105° = 30°Percentage increase = Total Increase × 100 The corresponding angle of year 2012
