Question

The circle graph describes the distribution of preferred music from a sample of 400 randomly selected middle school students.

a circle graph titled preferred music, with five sections labeled rock 13 percent, hip hop 25 percent, pop 35 percent, classical 13 percent, and jazz 14 percent

Which of the following conclusions can we draw from the circle graph?

Pop is the preferred music for 35 students.
Jazz is the preferred music for 56 students.
Together, Hip Hop, Rock, and Jazz are the preferred music for less than half the students.
Together, Hip Hop and Pop are the preferred music for 260 students.

Answer 1

Explanation:

(i) Number of people who are into classical music =10%

10% of pie chart =20 people.

1% ⇒ 10/20 ×100

and 100% ⇒ 10/20 ×100 × 100/ 100

​⇒200 people.

(ii) Light chart represent maximum number as it is 40% of total. ∴ Light music is liked by maximum people.

(iii)

Number of CD's of classical music ⇒ 100/10 × 1000(10%) =100

umber of CD's of semi classical music = 100/20 × 1000(20%) =200

just like that 30% is 300, 40% is 400.

Hope this helped :)
