An automobile dealer wants to construct a pie graph to represent types of cars that were sold in Jule. He sold 72 cars, 16 of which were convertibles. The convertibles will represent how many degrees in the circle?
.
The entire circle represents 72
and the "slice of pie" is represented by a portion:
16/72 * 100
= 0.22 * 100
= 22.222%
.
22.222% of 360 degrees
= .22222 * 360
= 80 degrees
