JAMB - Mathematics (1980 - No. 20)

A set of data contains a total of 130 items which are divided into six groups for display on a pie chart. If one group contains 26 items, then the sector representing this group on the pie chart contains an angle xo at the centre of the circle where x is
36o
60o
70o
72o
75o

Explanation

\(\frac{26}{130}\) = \(\frac{x}{360}\)

130x = 26 x 360

= 9360

x = \(\frac{9360}{130}\)

= 72o
