Direction: The following pie–chart shows the monthly expenditure of a family on various items. If the family spends $ 825 on clothing, answer the questions.
-
What percent of the total income does the family save?
-
- 15%
- 50%
- 20%
- 25%
Correct Option: A
As per the given pie chart in question ,
Corresponding angle for total expenditure = 360°
Percent of total expenditure = 100%
Corresponding angle for savings = 54°
∵ 360° ≡ 100%
| ∴ Required percent = | × Corresponding angle for savings | Corresponding angle for total expenditure |
| ∴ Required percent ≡ | × 54 = 15% | 360 |
