    As per the given pie chart in question ,
    Percentage of printing charge = 35%
    Percentage of advertisement charge = 18%
    Difference of percentage charges on printing and advertisement = 35 – 18 = 17%
    As we know that , 100% ≡ 360°

    ∴ 1% =
    360°
    100

    Correct Option: B

    As per the given pie chart in question ,
    Percentage expenditure on (football + basket ball + cricket) = (15 + 12.5 + 25)% = 52.5%
    Percentage expenditure on (tennis + hockey + golf) = (10 + 15 + 12.5)% = 37.5%
    ∴ Required ratio = Percentage expenditure on (football + basket ball + cricket) : Percentage expenditure on (tennis + hockey + golf)

    Correct Option: B

    As per the given pie chart in question ,
    Percentage expenditure on (football + basket ball + cricket) = (15 + 12.5 + 25)% = 52.5%
    Percentage expenditure on (tennis + hockey + golf) = (10 + 15 + 12.5)% = 37.5%
    ∴ Required ratio = Percentage expenditure on (football + basket ball + cricket) : Percentage expenditure on (tennis + hockey + golf)
    ∴ Required ratio = 52.5 : 37.5 = 7 : 5

    According to given pie chart in question ,
    Percentage expenditure on (hockey + football + others) = (15 + 15 + 10)% = 40%
    ∵ 100% ≡ 360°

    ∴ 1% ≡
    360°
    100

    Correct Option: D

    According to given pie chart in question ,
    Percentage expenditure on (hockey + football + others) = (15 + 15 + 10)% = 40%
    ∵ 100% ≡ 360°

    ∴ 1% ≡
    360°
    100

    ∴ 40% ≡
    360°
    × 40 = 144°
    100

    Given that , The money expenditure on cricket = $ 20,00,000
    From pie chart , percent expenditure on tennis = 25%
    According to the question,
    ∵ 25% ≡ $ 2000000

    ∴ 1% ≡ $2000000
    25

    Correct Option: A

    Given that , The money expenditure on cricket = $ 20,00,000
    From pie chart , percent expenditure on tennis = 25%
    According to the question,
