                    Draw a pie chart showing the following information. The table shows the colors prefered by a group of people.                                                                          
    Colors Number of People
    Blue 18
    Green 9
    Red 6
    Yellow 3
    Total 36
    Find the proportion of each sector. For example, Blue is \[\frac{18}{36}=\frac{1}{2};\] Green is \[\frac{9}{36}\,=\frac{1}{4}\] and so on. Use this to find the corresponding angles.

    Answer:

                    Pie chart                
    Colors Number of People Proportion Corresponding
    Blue 18 \[\frac{18}{36}=\frac{1}{2}\] \[\frac{1}{2}\times \,{{360}^{\text{o}}}={{180}^{\text{o}}}\]
    Green 9 \[\frac{9}{36}=\frac{1}{4}\] \[\frac{1}{4}\times \,{{360}^{\text{o}}}={{90}^{\text{o}}}\]
    Red 6 \[\frac{6}{36}=\frac{1}{6}\] \[\frac{1}{6}\times \,{{360}^{\text{o}}}={{60}^{\text{o}}}\]
    Yellow 3 \[\frac{3}{36}\,=\frac{1}{12}\] \[\frac{1}{12}\times \,{{360}^{\text{o}}}={{30}^{\text{o}}}\]
    Total 36 1 \[{{360}^{\text{o}}}\]
