Question 968739: The canine corral was overflowing with new puppies. They had 240 dogs total that they needed to sell. Mrs. Hound was walking around petting the dogs and counting the number of each breed she had. She learNed that they had twice as many beagles and poodles; three times as many chihuahuas as beagles; the same number of German shepards as beagles: 1/4 as many golden retrievers as German shepards, and the same number of Basset hounds as golden retreivers.
Please draw a pie chart (circle Graph) to display the types of dogs and the percentage of each dog at the pet shop. to find the correct angle, multiply each fraction by 360 degrees. Chart must have each section labeled w/ percentage. Degrees should total 360.

c. Chihuhuas 50%
d. German Shepards 16.66%
