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.

Answer:

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:

Activity Number of hours Sector angle
Sleep 8 8/24 × 360 = 120o
School 7 7/24 × 360 = 105o
Home 4 4/24 × 360 = 60o
Play 2 2/24 × 360 = 30o
Others 3 3/24 × 360 = 45o

Now, the pie chat that represents the given data can be constructed by following the steps given below:
Step 1 : Draw a circle of an appropriate radius.
Step 2 : Draw a vertical radius of the circle drawn in step 1.
Step 3 : Choose the largest central angle. Here, the largest central angle is 120o. Draw a sector with the central angle 120o in such a way that one of its radii coincides with the radius drawn in step 2 and another radius is in its counter-clockwise direction.
Step 4 : Construct other sectors representing other items in the clockwise direction in descending order of magnitudes of their central angles.
​Step 5 : Shade the sectors with different colours and label them as shown as in the figure below.​​

Number of workers 420 300 225 105 1080
Draw a pie-chart to represent the above information.

Answer:

We know:
Central angle of a component = (component value / sum of component values × 360ο)
Here, total number of workers = 1050
Thus, the central angle for each component can be calculated as follows:

Now, the pie chat representing the given data can be constructed by following the steps below:
Step 1 : Draw circle of an appropriate radius.
Step 2 : Draw a vertical radius of the circle drawn in step 1.
Step 3 : Choose the largest central angle. Here the largest central angle is 104.4o. Draw a sector with the central angle 104.4o in such a way that one of its radii coincides with the radius drawn in step 2 and another radius is in its counter clockwise direction.
Step 4 : Construct the other sectors representing the other items in the clockwise sense in descending order of magnitudes of their central angles.
Step 5 : Shade the sectors with different colours and label them as shown in the figure below.​​

Question 1:

The pie-chart given in Fig. 25.17 represents the expenditure on different items in constructing a flat in Delhi. If the expenditure incurred on cement is Rs 112500, find the following:


(i) Total cost of the flat.
(ii) Expenditure incurred on labour.

Answer:

(i) Expenditure incurred on cement  = Central angle of the corresponding sector × Total cost360°
Total cost of the flat = 360° × 11250075° = Rs 540000
                                        
(ii) Expenditure incurred on labour = Central angle of labour sector × Total cost360°
= 100° × 540000360°= Rs  150000

Question 2:

The pie-chart given in Fig. 25.18 shows the annual agricultural production of an Indian state. If the total production of all the commodities is 81000 tonnes, find the production (in tonnes) of
(i) Wheat
(ii) Sugar
(iii) Rice
(iv) Maize
(v) Gram

Answer:

(i)
Production of wheat = Central angle for wheat × Total production360°= 120° × 81000360° = 27000 tonnes
               
(ii)
Production of sugar = Central angle for sugar × Total production360°= 10° × 81000360° = 22500 tonnes

(iii)
Production of rice = Central angle for Rice × Total production360°= 60° × 81000360° = 13500 tonnes

(iv)
Production of maize = Central angle for maize × Total production360°= 30° × 81000360° = 6750 tonnes

(v)
Production of gram = Central angle for Gram × Total production360°= 120° × 81000360° = 11250 tonnes

Question 3:

The following pie-chart shows the number of students admitted in different faculties of a college. If 1000 students are admitted in Science answer the following:


(i) What is the total number of students?
(ii) What is the ratio of students in science and arts?

Answer:


(i)
Students in science= Central angle of the corresponding sector × Total students360°1000 = 100° × Total students360°  Total students = 3600

(ii)
Students in arts= Central angle for arts × Total students360°= 120° × 3600360° = 1200  Ratio of students in science and arts = 1000:1200 = 5:6

Question 4:

In Fig. 25.20, the pie-chart shows the marks obtained by a student in an examination. If the student secures 440 marks in all, calculate his marks in each of the given subjects.

Answer:

Marks secured in mathematics = (108 x 440)/360 marks =  132 marks
Marks secured in science = (81 x 440)/360 marks = 99 marks
Marks secured in English = (72 x 440)/360  marks = 88 marks
Marks secured in Hindi = (54 x 440)/360 marks = 66 marks
Marks secured in social science = (45 x 440)/360 marks = 55 marks

Question 5:

In Fig. 25.21, the pie-chart shows the marks obtained by a student in various subjects. If the student scored 135 marks in mathematics, find the total marks in all the subjects. Also, find his score in individual subjects.

Answer:

Marks scored in mathematics  = Central angle of corresponding sector × Total Marks360° 135 = 90° × Total360° Total Marks = 540

Marks scored in Hindi = (Central angle of Hindi x Total)/360
          = (60 x 540)/360 marks = 90 marks
Similarly, marks scored in science = (76 x 540) /360 marks = 114 marks
Marks scored in social science = (72 x 540) /360 marks = 108 marks
Marks scored in English = (62 x 540)/360 marks = 93 marks

Question 6:

The following pie-chart shows the monthly expenditure of Shikha on various items. If she spends Rs 16000 per month, answer the following questions:


(i) How much does she spend on rent?
(ii) How much does she spend on education?
(iii) What is the ratio of expenses on food and rent?

Answer:

(i) Money spent on rent = Central angle of the corresponding sector × Total Money spent360°                               = 81° × 16000360° = Rs 3,600(ii)  Money spent on education = Central angle of the corresponding sector × Total Money spent360° = 36° × 16000360° = Rs 1,600(iii) Money spent on food = Central angle of the corresponding sector × Total Money spent360°         = 135° × 16000360° = 6,000Ratio of expenses on food and rent = 60003600 = 53

The pie chart (as shown in the figure 25.23) represents the amount spent on different sports by a sports club in a year. If the total money spent by the club on sports is Rs 1,08,000, find the amount spent on each sport.

Answer:


Amount spent on cricket  = Central angle of the corresponding sector × Total Money spent360° = 150° × 108000360° = Rs 45,000Amount spent on hockey  = Central angle of the corresponding sector × Total Money spent360° = 100° × 108000360° = Rs 30,000Amount spent on football  = Central angle of the corresponding sector × Total Money spent360° = 60° × 108000360° = Rs 18,000Amount spent on tennis = Central angle of the corresponding sector × Total Money spent360° = 50° × 108000360° = Rs 15,000
