Question:1
The number of hours, spent by a school boy on different activities in a working day, is given below:
Activities Sleep School Home Play Others Total
Number of hours 8 7 4 2 3 24
Present the information in the form of a pie-chart.
Solution:
We know:
Central angle of a component = (component value / sum of component values ×
360)
Here, total number of hours = 24
Thus, the central angle for each component can be calculated as follows:
