    The pie chart shows the number of fruits sold in a store. The number of apples is 180 and the number of oranges is 400. What is the angle of the sector representing the number of pears?

    A)  \[{{60}^{o}}\]                                   

    B)                         \[{{70}^{o}}\]                                   

    C)                         \[{{160}^{o}}\]                                

    D)                         \[{{200}^{o}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[90\,\,\_\_\_\_\_\,\,180\] \[?\,\,\_\_\_\_\_\,\,400\] \[\Rightarrow \]  \[400\times \frac{{{90}^{o}}}{180}={{200}^{o}}\] Angle of sector showing oranges \[={{200}^{o}}\] \[\therefore \] \[{{90}^{o}}+{{200}^{o}}+{{x}^{o}}={{360}^{o}}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[x={{360}^{o}}-{{290}^{o}}={{70}^{o}}\]
