Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In a pie chart representing the distribution of a budget, if 'Marketing' takes up 20% and 'Research' takes up 30%, what is the minimum percentage that 'Operations' could take?
  • Step 1: Understand that a pie chart represents 100% of the budget.
  • Step 2: Add the percentages of 'Marketing' and 'Research'.
  • Step 3: Calculate 20% (Marketing) + 30% (Research) = 50%.
  • Step 4: Subtract the total percentage of 'Marketing' and 'Research' from 100%.
  • Step 5: Calculate 100% - 50% = 50%.
  • Step 6: Realize that the remaining 50% can be divided among 'Operations' and other categories.
  • Step 7: Determine the minimum percentage for 'Operations' by assuming other categories take 40% of the remaining budget.
  • Step 8: Calculate 50% (remaining budget) - 40% (other categories) = 10% (minimum for Operations).
