Answer:

Hence, the central angle measure of the section representing those who favor candy is:

Option: C 108

Explanation:

We are given a circle graph with the information as:

Cookies 10%

Ice cream 35%

Cake 25%

Candy 30%

We know that in a circle graph:

100%=360°

We are given the percent preference of candy is 30%

As 100%=360°

⇒ 1%=(360/100)°

⇒ 30%=30×(360/100)°

⇒ 30%=108°

Hence,the central angle measure of the section representing those who favor candy is:

108
