The correct Answer is:
To find the angle of the sector representing expenditure towards education in a pie chart, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the total percentage The total percentage of the income is 100%. The person spends 25% of his income on education. ### Step 2: Calculate the angle for education A pie chart represents a full circle, which is 360 degrees. To find the angle corresponding to the expenditure on education, we use the formula: \[ \text{Angle} = \left( \frac{\text{Percentage}}{100} \right) \times 360 \] ### Step 3: Substitute the values Substituting the percentage for education (25%) into the formula: \[ \text{Angle} = \left( \frac{25}{100} \right) \times 360 \] ### Step 4: Simplify the calculation Calculating the fraction: \[ \text{Angle} = 0.25 \times 360 \] Now, multiply: \[ \text{Angle} = 90 \] ### Conclusion The angle of the sector representing expenditure towards education in the pie diagram showing his income is **90 degrees**. ---
