The pie chart shows the number of students who choose different co-curricular activities in a school. An equal number of students choose Basketball and Volleyball and 96 students choose Table Tennis.
The ratio of the number of students who choose Basketball to those who choose Soccer is 2 : 7. How many students choose Soccer?
Solution
Let the total number of students be x.
Central angle for table Tennis students = 90°
Number of students who choose Table Tennis = 96
So, total number of students = 384
Now, it is given that
Number of Basketball students = Number of Volleyball students
Central angle for Basketball students = Central angle for Volleyball students
Also, central angle for Basketball and Volleyball together = 90°
2 × Central angle for Basketball = 90°
Central angle for Basketball students
=
= 45°
Number of students who choose Basketball
=

Rajan sold a cycle at a loss of Rs. 300. If he had sold it at Rs. 3000, he would have made a profit of Rs. 600. At what price did he sell the cycle?
Solution
We have S.P. = Rs. 3000
