Question

Mr. Allway’s math class surveyed all the seventh-grade students to find out their favorite sport. The following circle graph shows a breakdown of the survey findings.

Find the number of degrees represented by Basketball.

108°
101°
11°
140°

Answer 1

101 is the answer of the question

Answer 2

101 degrees

Explanation:

First you add all the percentages

39 + 28 + 30 + 3 = 100%

To find the number of degrees of basketball you multiply 28% by 360 because it’s a circle.

28/100 * 360 = 10,080/100 = 100.8 ~ 101
