Question

*DO NOT ANSWER IF YOU DONT KNOW THE F/N CORRECT ANSWER*

In a recent election, there were six candidates and 4300 total votes. The circle graph below summarizes the votes by candidate. The central angle for the Choi slice is 86.4 ° . How many of the votes did Choi get?

Answer 1

First use the fact that there are 360degrees in a circle and the given angle to find out Choi's percentage of the vote:

`\%_(Choi)=(86.4\°)/(360\°) = 0.24 = 24\%`

Then use that percentage to calculate Choi's total votes:

`Votes_(Choi)=\%_(Choi) * Votes_(total)`

`Votes_(Choi)=24\% * 4300`

`Votes_(Choi)=\1032`

Choi got 1,032 votes.

To check:

`(1032)/(4300)=0.24`

`0.24 * 360 = 86.4` CHECKS
