ANSWER


\begin{equation*} 18\degree \end{equation*}

Step-by-step explanation

We want to find the measure of the central angle for gardening.

The total angle in a circle is 360 degrees. Since Gardening represents 5% of the circle, we have to find 5% of 360 degrees.

That is:


\begin{gathered} (5)/(100)*360 \\ \Rightarrow18\degree \end{gathered}

That is the answer.
