Direction: The following pie diagram gives the marks scored by a student in different subjects – English, Hindi, Mathematics, Science and Social Science in an examination. Assuming that the total marks obtained for the examination are 540, answer the questions.

  1. The marks scored in Hindi and Mathematics exceed the marks scored in English and Social science by
    1. 30
    2. 40
    3. 60
    4. 75
Correct Option: C

As per the given pie chart in question ,
Corresponding angles of ( Hindi + English ) = ( 70 + 90 ) = 160°
Corresponding angles of ( English + Social Science ) = ( 55° + 65° ) = 120°
Difference = Corresponding angles of ( Hindi + English ) - Corresponding angles of ( English + Social Science )
Difference = 160 – 120 = 40°
∵ 360° ≡ 540

∴ 40° ≡
540
× 40 = 60
360
