Question

$\text{If the fraction represented by the given pie chart}\text{is a fourth of the fraction}\frac{2}{A}\text{, then find the value}\text{of A:}$

• A. A = 3
• B. A = 4
• C. A = 5
• D. A = 6

Answer 1

The correct option is C A = 5

$\text{Examining the chart, we get:}$


$\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{2}{A}=\frac{1}{10}$

$\frac{1\times 2}{4\times A}=\frac{1}{10}$

$⟹\frac{1\times 2}{4\times A}=\frac{1}{10}$

$\frac{1\times 1}{2\times A}=\frac{1}{10}$

$⟹2\times A=10$

$⟹A=5$
