You are going to create a circle graph to represent some data. How many degrees should a section representing 65 out of a hundred be?
A. 234°
B. 65°
C. 100°
D. 13°

Respuesta :

Answer: OPTION A.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a circle measures 360 degrees. Then, to determine the size of a section, we need to multiply the percent of the category by 360 degrees.

First, we need to write 65 out of a hundred in decimal form:

[tex]\frac{65}{100}=0.65[/tex]

Now, let be "x" the degrees of the section representing 65 out of a hundred. We need to multiply 360 degrees by 0.65. Therefore, we get this result:

[tex]x=360\°*0.65\\x=234\°[/tex]

This matches with the option A.
