Study the chart and answer the questions.
The Income of a State Under Different Heads is Given in the Following Pie-chart

If the income from the market tax in a year be ₹ 165 crore, then the total income from other sources is (in ₹ crore)

  • 345

  • 365

  • 335

  • 325

Solution

C.

335

Income from market tax = ₹ 165 crore, 33% = ₹ 165 crore
Then, income from other sources  = (100 - 33)% = 67%
If 33% = 165
therefore               67% = fraction numerator 165 cross times 67 over denominator 33 end fraction = ₹ 335 crore

In an institution, there are 800 students, Students use different modes of transport for going to the institution and return. The given pie diagram represents the requisite data. Study the diagram carefully and answer the questions.


The number of students who travel in public bus is

  • 150

  • 120

  • 130

  • 125

Solution

B.

120

Corresponding angle to the number of students who travel by public bus = 54°
∵  360° = 800
therefore space space 54 degree space equals space 800 over 360 space cross times space 54 degree space equals space 120

In an institution, there are 800 students, Students use different modes of transport for going to the institution and return. The given pie diagram represents the requisite data. Study the diagram carefully and answer the questions.


The number of students who do not use Institute bus is

  • 330

  • 350

  • 480

  • 320

Solution

D.

320

Corresponding angle to the number of students who do not use Institute bus
 = 360°  -  216° = 144° 
∵  360° = 800
therefore space space 144 degree space equals space 800 over 360 space cross times space 144 space equals space 320

In an institution, there are 800 students, Students use different modes of transport for going to the institution and return. The given pie diagram represents the requisite data. Study the diagram carefully and answer the questions.


The number of students who go to institute on foot is

  • 160

  • 170

  • 120

  • 106

Solution

A.

160

Corresponding angle to the number of students who to go to institute on foot
 = 360° - (216° + 54° + 18°)
 = 72°
 therefore space space fraction numerator 72 space cross times space 800 over denominator 360 end fraction space equals space 160
