The equation 7 + 9 + 5 + 48 + x = 100 represents the sum of the percentages of each section and the percent of adoptions that were cats is 31
How does the equation relate to the circle graph?
The equation of the circle graph is given as:
7 + 9 + 5 + 48 + x = 100
From the above equation
7, 9, 5, 48 and x represent the proportion of each part of the circle graph
This means that the equation represents the sum of the percentages of each section
Hence, the equation 7 + 9 + 5 + 48 + x = 100 represents the sum of the percentages of each section
How can you use this equation to find the percent of adoptions that were cats?
We have:
7 + 9 + 5 + 48 + x = 100
Evaluate the sum
69 + x = 100
Subtract 69 from both sides
x = 31
Hence, the percent of adoptions that were cats is 31
