Question

A circular cake is to be equally distributed among 12 friends. If the cake has to be cut along its radius, what is the angle between consecutive cuts?

• A. ${30}^{\circ }$
• B. ${12}^{\circ }$
• C. ${36}^{\circ }$
• D. ${15}^{\circ }$

Answer 1

The correct option is A

${30}^{\circ }$

Angle made by a circle is ${360}^{\circ }$

Since cake has to be equally divided, the angles would be equal

So, basically ${360}^{\circ }$ is going to be divided into 12 parts

So, angle of each part would be $\frac{{360}^{\circ }}{12}$ = ${30}^{\circ }$
