    ∴ 1% =
    360°
    100

    Correct Option: C

    According to given pie chart in question ,
    Percent of cost of paper = 10%
    ∵ 100% ≡ 360°

    ∴ 1% =
    360°
    100

    We have , 10% ≡
    360
    × 10 = 36°
    100



  1. The central angle of printing charge is x more than that of advertisement charges. Then the value of x is

    ∴ 1% =
    360°
    100

    Correct Option: B

    As per the given pie chart in question ,
    Percentage of printing charge = 35%
    Percentage of advertisement charge = 18%

    ∴ 1% =
    360°
    100

    Now , we have 17% ≡
    360
    × 17 = 61.2°
