Question

Table shows different types of clothing in certain clothing shops. Construct a pie chart from the given data-

Type of clothing	Number of clothing
Saree	650
Dress	740
Gents wear	560
Kids wear	450

What part of the clothing is Kids wearing?

Answer 1

First, from the data given in the question, we have to find the total number of clothing of different types that sum up all the numbers of clothing of different types. Then, we prepare a table of columns: type of clothing , number of clothing , part of type contributing the total clothing and angle in pie chart for each type of clothing. To draw the pie chart, the angle of each type is calculated by multiplying its part of type contributing the total clothing with ${360^ \circ }$. Now we can draw the pie chart using the table .

Complete step-by-step solution:
Total number of clothing materials=
$650 + 740 + 560 + 450$
$= 1390 + 560 + 450$
$= 1950 + 450$
$= 2400$

Type of clothing	Number of clothing	Part of type contributing the total clothing	Angle in pie chart for each type of clothing
Saree	650	$\dfrac{{650}}{{2400}} = \dfrac{{13}}{{48}}$	$\dfrac{{13}}{{48}} \times {360^ \circ } = {97.5^ \circ }$
Dress	740	$\dfrac{{740}}{{2400}} = \dfrac{{37}}{{120}}$	$\dfrac{{37}}{{120}} \times {360^ \circ } = {111^ \circ }$
Gents wear	560	$\dfrac{{560}}{{2400}} =\dfrac{7}{{30}}$	$\dfrac{7}{{30}} \times {360^ \circ } = {84^ \circ }$
Kids wear	450	$\dfrac{{450}}{{2400}} = \dfrac{3}{{16}}$	$\dfrac{3}{{16}} \times {360^ \circ } = {67.5^ \circ }$

The part of clothing kids wear =$\dfrac{3}{{16}}$.
Pie chart of above information :

Note: Here we have provided all the information in the table . This form of assembling of data helps us to analyze data in a simple way and also helps in easy preparation of pie charts.
Angle in pie chart for saree=97.5degrees.
Angle in pie chart for Dress= 111 degrees
Angle in pie chart for Gentswear =84 degrees
Angle in pie chart for Kidswear=67.5 degrees
