A survey about the student government program at a school finds the following results.
190 students like the program
135 students think the program is unnecessary
220 students plan on running for student government next year.
If a circle graph were made from this data, what would the measure of the central angle be for the group that likes the program? Round your answer to the nearest whole number. Please help. Thank you! :3
Okay so i think i know how to do it? idk if this is right but basically
I did cross-product (n/100 = 190/545)
545n = 19000
divide both sides by 545
that leaves us with a decimal (34.86238532)
The instructions say to round to the nearest whole number (35)
That's our percentage.
Next, take 35 and divide it by 100, which gives us 0.35
We multiply that by 360 (cause it's a circle graph, and circles are always 360 degrees) and we end up with 126(degrees)
that'll be your answer (hopefully? i mean, i'm not completely sure but this is my best guess honestly)
legend has it that heyo never got his grade back to this day...
Yeah so my answer got graded, and it was correct
@your welcome is wrong
also, it's "you're" not "your"
thats what she said
Why is jiskha just fricken awesome......sometimes?
Bruh. Lynn got me with the "legend has it that heyo never goy his grade back to this day..." that sh funny
Dude if the students think it is stupid then they wouldn't think it was fun or great at alllll.
Where did the 360 come from?
Good one LMAO but let get the answer
french baguette man your name should be French with a capital don't judge other people. when you have your own problems. This guy probably thought that was the answer and he got a bad grade and now you are judging them.
baguette's is, i looked at a pie chart calculator and it is indeed 126(.67)
I haven't been graded yet but,
If you crossmultiply n/100=190/545, 545n=19000. Then you divide both sides by 545. That leaves us with a percentage of 35. Next take 35 an divide it by 100, which gives us 0.35. Finally, we multiply 0.35 by 360, because it is a circle and circles are always 360 degrees, and up with 126, degrees. In conclusion the measurement for the central angle for the group that likes the program is 126 degrees.
Don't copy. PARAPHRASE.
What's the right answer tho?
TY BAGUETTE
Is Steve right?
wait some of yall were here today? anyways i need help 💀
To find the central angle for the group that likes the program, we need to calculate the percentage of students who like the program out of the total number of students surveyed.
Total number of students surveyed = 190 + 135 + 220 = 545
Percentage of students who like the program = (190/545) × 100 ≈ 34.86%
Next, we need to calculate the central angle that corresponds to this percentage of the circle. We can use the formula:
central angle = percentage/100 × 360
Substituting the values, we get:
central angle = 34.86/100 × 360 ≈ 125.5
Rounding to the nearest whole number, the measure of the central angle for the group that likes the program is 126 degrees.
I used Steves answer and I haven't gotten my grade back yet but I will update u guys when I do
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE ITS HARDDDDDDDDD
I got 100%^^^^^^
hehe
first 1 here in 2023 less goooo
Happy New Year 2023!
Aint no way you said happy new year- in April- ;-;
Oh, I apologize! I didn't notice the date. Have a great day instead!
LOL
Is there anything else I can help you with?
No thanks, I already got my answer, Thanks though.
You're welcome! Feel free to come back if you need help in the future.

the answer is 126 degrees?
can we assume that no student is in more than one group?
If so, then we want 190/545 * 360 degrees.
