    Directions: The pie-chart provided below gives the distribution of land (in a village) under various food crops. Study the pie-chart carefully and answer the questions.
    If 10% of the land reserved for Rice be distributed to Wheat and Barley in the ratio 2 : 1, then the angle corresponding to Wheat in the new pie-chart will be

    A) \[38.4{}^\circ \]

    B) \[76.8{}^\circ \]

    C) \[75.6{}^\circ \]

    D) \[45.5{}^\circ \]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] 10% of the land reserved for Rice \[=10%\]of\[72{}^\circ =7.2{}^\circ \] It is distributed to Wheat and Barley in the ratio \[2:1.\] Therefore, angle increased corresponding to Wheat\[=\frac{2}{3}\times 7.2=4.8{}^\circ \] Now angle corresponding to Wheat \[=72{}^\circ +4.8{}^\circ =76.8{}^\circ \]
