we can use the cross multiplication

we know that the full angle of a circle is 360° so the total angle corresponds to 60 students

so, what is 72 degrees?


\begin{gathered} 360\longrightarrow60 \\ 72\longrightarrow x \end{gathered}

where x is the number of students than said giraffes


\begin{gathered} x=(72*60)/(360) \\ \\ x=12 \end{gathered}

the students than said giraffes are 12
