Direction: The Expenditure of a family in a month is represented by a Pie-chart. Read it carefully to answer the questions.
-
If the total amount spent is $ 7,200, find the amount spent on food :
-
- $ 1500
- $ 6000
- $ 4500
- $ 3000
Correct Option: D
On the basis of given pie chart in question , Corresponding angle for expense on food = 150°
Total expenditure amount = $ 7200
Corresponding angle for total expenditure = 360°
∵ 360° ≡ $ 7200
∴ Expenditure on food = $ | Total expenditure amount | × Corresponding angle for expense on food | |||
Corresponding angle for total expenditure |
∴ Expenditure on food = 150° ≡ $ | 7200 | × 150 | = $ 3000 | ||
360 |
