Answer: The portion of skiing is 36 degrees (36°)
Step-by-step explanation: In order to calculate the value of any of the given variables in degrees, we must calculate it as a fraction of the total and then convert it to a degree measure in relation to a total of 360 degrees. (Please note that a pie chart has a total of 360 degrees measurement for all the variables given)
The variables are;
Soccer - 5
Jogging - 20
Walking - 10
Skiing - 5
Football - 10
Total - 50
Therefore, the fraction that represents skiing is given as
Skiing = 5/50
Skiing = 1/10
Calculating this portion in degrees becomes,
Skiing = 1/10 x 360
Skiing = 36 degrees (36°)
Answer:
x = 36° represents the proportion of hours spent on skiing.
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution:-
- The time taken for various activities is to be represented using a pie chart.
- The individual times for various activities are given:
Soccer : 5 hours
Jogging : 20 hours
Walking : 10 hours
Skiing : 5 hours
Football : 10 hours
=========================
Total time : 50 hours
=========================
- An entire pie chart is represented by a circle. Where the angle representation of a complete circle is 360° - mapping the total number of hours taken for all activities.
- So, 360° ............. Total Time = 50 hours
- So we will use direct proportions to evaluate the angle representation for the number of hours spent on skiing for a pie chart:
x ................. Skiing time = 5 hours
======================================
50*x = 5*360
x = 36°
