The information below shows the number of television sets sold by tosmic electronics ltd from march to august 2017.

March 172,April 320, May 120, June 180, July 288, August 360.
i)find a pie chat to illustrate the information.
ii)what is the percentage of television sets sold in the month of June.

Answer 1

i) Here is the pie chart:

ii) To find the percentage of television sets sold in the month of June, we need to divide the number of TV sets sold in June (180) by the total number of TV sets sold (1,440) and multiply by 100:

```
180 ÷ 1,440 x 100 = 12.5%
```

So 12.5% of the TV sets sold were sold in the month of June.

iii) To find the fraction of television sets sold, we need to add up all the TV sets sold and put that over the total number of TV sets sold:

```
172 + 320 + 120 + 180 + 288 + 360 = 1,440
```

So the fraction of TV sets sold is:

```
1,440/1,440 = 1/1
```

So all of the TV sets sold make up a whole unit (or one whole).

iv) To calculate the average number of TV sets sold, we need to add up all the TV sets sold and divide by the number of months (which is 6):

```
(172 + 320 + 120 + 180 + 288 + 360) ÷ 6 = 240
```

So the average number of TV sets sold per month from March to August is 240.

Answer 2

i) To create a pie chart, we need to calculate the percentage of television sets sold in each month.

March: 172 / (172+320+120+180+288+360) * 100 = 13.38%
April: 320 / (172+320+120+180+288+360) * 100 = 24.92%
May: 120 / (172+320+120+180+288+360) * 100 = 9.34%
June: 180 / (172+320+120+180+288+360) * 100 = 14.06%
July: 288 / (172+320+120+180+288+360) * 100 = 22.39%
August: 360 / (172+320+120+180+288+360) * 100 = 28.91%

Now we can use these percentages to create the pie chart.

ii) The percentage of television sets sold in June was 14.06%.

iii) To find the fraction of televisions sold, we need to add up the number of televisions sold in each month and express the value as a fraction of the total sales.

Total TVs sold = 172 + 320 + 120 + 180 + 288 + 360 = 1440

Fraction of TVs sold in June = 180 / 1440 = 1/8

iv) To calculate the average number of televisions sold, we need to add up the number of televisions sold in each month and divide it by the number of months.

Total TVs sold = 172 + 320 + 120 + 180 + 288 + 360 = 1440
Number of Months = 6

Average TVs sold per month = Total TVs sold / Number of Months = 1440 / 6 = 240
