The pie chart given below shows the runs scored by a batsman in 6 matches. The data is presented in the terms of degrees.
Total runs scored by the batsman in M6 and M5 are 240. What are the total runs scored by the batsman in M2 and M3?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
Given:
M6 = 126°, M5 = 54°, M2 = 54°, M3 = 36°
Runs for M6 + M5 = 240
M6 + M5 = 126 + 54 = 180°
⇒ 180° = 240 runs
⇒ 1° = 240/180 = 4/3
M2 + M3 = 54 + 36 = 90°
Runs = 90 × 4/3 = 120
