Based on the circle graph, 25% of the videos rented were action videos. To find out how many action videos were rented, we can calculate 25% of 1340.

25% of 1340 = (25/100) * 1340 = 335

Therefore, 335 action videos were rented.

To find out how many more comedies than dramas were rented, we need to calculate the difference between the percentages of comedy and drama videos rented.

38% comedy - 23% drama = 15%

To find out the actual number of videos, we can calculate 15% of 1340.

15% of 1340 = (15/100) * 1340 = 201

Therefore, there were 201 more comedies rented than dramas.

To determine the percentage of videos rented in the "other" category we need to subtract the percentages of comedy, drama, and action videos from 100%.

100% - 38% comedy - 23% drama - 25%
action = 14% other

Therefore, 14% of the videos rented were in the "other" category.
