Question 51

The given pie chart shows the marks obtained in an examination by a student (in degrees). Observe the pie chart and answer the question that follows.

If the total marks are 720, then the marks obtained in English is what percentage of the marks obtained in Maths?

Solution

Given total marks = 720

Marks obtained by the student in English = $$\frac{60^{\circ\ }}{360^{\circ\ }}\times720$$ = 120

Marks obtained by the student in Maths = $$\frac{80^{\circ\ }}{360^{\circ\ }}\times720$$ =160

$$\therefore\ $$Required percentage = $$\frac{120}{160}\times100$$ = 75%

Hence, the correct answer is Option C
