Answer:

123°

Explanation:

First we will calculate the percentage of the people who like bananas.

41 out of 120 people chose their favorite fruit as bananas

=
(41)/(120)* 100

= 34.167%

Pie chart is a circle, that is of angle 360°

Therefore, the angle for people who chose bananas as their favorite fruit

= 34.167% of 360

=
(34.167)/(100)* 360

= 0.34167 × 360

= 123.0012 ≈ 123°

The angle would be 123° for the people who chose banana as their favorite fruit.
