Q
Q: A pie chart illustrates the time spent by students on various subjects. If Mathematics takes up 25% of the time, what is the angle in degrees representing Mathematics?
Solution: The angle for Mathematics is calculated as (25/100) * 360 = 90 degrees.
Steps: 7
Step 1: Understand that a pie chart represents a whole circle, which is 360 degrees.
Step 2: Know that the percentage of time spent on a subject can be converted into an angle.
Step 3: For Mathematics, the percentage is 25%.
Step 4: To find the angle, use the formula: (percentage / 100) * 360.
