SSC CGL - 12th June 2019 - Shift 3 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q74

Direction:This table shows the percentage of students passing out of five different colleges over three years. It is given that from each college, 200 students appeared every year.

Years College
A B C D E
2015 68 65 80 92 72
2016 72 68 88 95 75
2017 74 77 92 98 73

 

If the number of passed out students of all five colleges is represented by a pie chart, what is the central angle (to nearest whole number) of the sector representing the passed out students of college C?

Show answer & explanation

Fair calculation

Pie chart represents 360 degree

Extract the data from the table

Total passed students from college A = 200 × 0.68 + 200 × 0.72 + 200 × 0.74 = 136 + 144 + 148 = 428

Total passed students from college B = 200 × 0.65 + 200 × 0.68 + 200 × 0.77 = 130 + 136 + 154 = 420

Total passed students from college C = 200 × 0.8 + 200 × 0.88 + 200 × 0.92 = 160 + 176 + 184 = 520

Total passed students from college D = 200 × 0.92 + 200 × 0.95 + 200 × 0.98 = 184 + 190 + 196 = 570

Total passed students from college E = 200 × 0.72 + 200 × 0.75 + 200 × 0.73 = 144 + 150 + 146 = 440

Hence, total passed students = 428 + 420 + 520 + 570 + 440 = 2378

Central angle of the sector representing the passed-out students of collegeC = [520/2378] × 360 = 79°

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[520/2378] × 360

= 0.2186 × 360

= 78.7
