A nation's total federal budget of ₦500 billion₦500\text{ billion} is allocated across four key sectors: Health (₦125 billion₦125\text{ billion}), Education (₦175 billion₦175\text{ billion}), Defense (₦120 billion₦120\text{ billion}), and Agriculture (the remainder). In a pie chart constructed to represent this budget distribution, what is the central angle (in degrees) representing the allocation for Agriculture?

Cevap: 57.6 degrees

Cevap

The central angle representing the allocation for Agriculture is 57.6∘57.6^\circ.
To calculate the central angle of a sector in a pie chart, find the ratio of that sector's value to the total value and multiply by 360∘360^\circ. Subtracting the specified sector allocations (₦125 billion+₦175 billion+₦120 billion=₦420 billion₦125\text{ billion} + ₦175\text{ billion} + ₦120\text{ billion} = ₦420\text{ billion}) from the total budget of ₦500 billion₦500\text{ billion} leaves ₦80 billion₦80\text{ billion} for Agriculture. The proportion is 80500=0.16\frac{80}{500} = 0.16. Multiplying 0.160.16 by 360∘360^\circ results in a central angle of 57.6∘57.6^\circ.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the monetary allocation for the Agriculture sector.
Agriculture allocation = ₦80 billion₦80\text{ billion}.
The total budget is ₦500 billion₦500\text{ billion}, and the combined allocation for Health, Education, and Defense is ₦125+₦175+₦120=₦420 billion₦125 + ₦175 + ₦120 = ₦420\text{ billion}.
2
Find the fractional share of Agriculture relative to the entire budget.
Proportional share = 0.160.16 (or 16%16\%).
Dividing ₦80 billion₦80\text{ billion} by the total budget of ₦500 billion₦500\text{ billion} gives 80500=0.16\frac{80}{500} = 0.16.
3
Convert the fractional share into a sector angle in degrees.
Central angle = 57.6∘57.6^\circ.
A full circle in a pie chart corresponds to 360∘360^\circ, so 0.16×360∘=57.6∘0.16 \times 360^\circ = 57.6^\circ.
