Grade
Number of Students
4th
45
5th
25
6th
60
7th
50
8th
60
9th
45

Suppose you want to show the data in a circle graph. Find the measure of the central angle for 9th grade. Round your answer to the nearest degree, if necessary.
a. 28
b. 45
c. 57
d. 16

Answer :

Answer:  Option 'C' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Grade    Number of Students

4th                   45

5th                   25

6th                   60

7th                   50

8th                    60

9th                    45

Total number of students is given by

45+25+60+50+60+45 = 285

So, the central angle for 9th grade would be

[tex]\dfrac{45}{285}\times 360^\circ\\\\=56.8^\circ\\\\\approx 57^\circ[/tex]

Hence, Option 'C' is correct.
