Question

The below pie chart represents how much time John spends on different activities.
The following conclusion can be made from the above pie chart:

• A. John spends one fourth of his time studying.
• B. John spends one third of his time studying.
• C. John spends half of his time studying.
• D. John spends his whole time studying.

Answer 1

The correct option is B John spends one third of his time studying.


Given, the central angle of each of the sectors is ${120}^{\circ }.$

We know that, the total central angle of a pie chart is ${360}^{\circ }.$

Fraction of the study sector out of the whole $=\frac{{120}^{\circ }}{{360}^{\circ }}=\frac{1}{3}$

Hence, John spends one third of his time studying.

Option (b.) is the correct choice.
