Question

The given pie chart shows the distribution of different types of plants in a garden in Chicago.

If the garden has a total of 60 plants, how many apple plants does it have?

• A. $10$
• B. $15$
• C. $20$
• D. $5$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $10$

Given, total number of plants $=60$Fraction of apple plants out of the total plants $=\frac{{60}^{\circ }}{{360}^{\circ }}=\frac{1}{6}$

$\therefore \text{Number of apple plants = Total number of plants}\times \text{Fraction of apple plants}$
$=60\times \frac{1}{6}$
$=10$
Option(a.) is the correct choice.
