In the following questions, the pie-chart shows the number of students admitted in different faculties of a college. Study the chart and answer the questions.
No. of students in Science = 1000
Angle subtended by students in Science = 100°
=> Total no. of students = $$\frac{1000}{100}$$ * 360 = 3600
Angle subtended by students in Commerce = 65°
=> No. of students in Commerce = $$\frac{65}{360}$$ * 3600 = 650
Angle subtended by students in Law = 45°
=> No. of students in Law = $$\frac{45}{360}$$ * 3600 = 450
$$\therefore$$ No. of students more in commerce than in law = 650-450 = 200
(SHORTCUT) :
Since, angle subtended in Science = 100° and no. of students given in Science = 1000
=> 1° = 10 students
Difference in angle between commerce and law = 65-45 = 20°
=> Difference in students = 200 [Since, 1° = 10 students, => 20° = 200 students]
