Question

How many runs did Sachin score? In \[\% \]

Answer 1

Hint: Here, we will analyze the given pie chart to find the runs scored by Sachin and then we will add the total runs scored during the cricket match. Then we will find the percentage by dividing the runs scored by Sachin with total runs scored and multiply it with 100.

Complete step-by-step answer:
Here, we will form a table with names and the runs scored by them.

Name	Scored Runs
Parthiv	45
Sachin	75
Ravindra	70
Sehwag	110

First, we will analyze the given pie chart to find the runs scored by Sachin, we have
\[ \Rightarrow {\text{Runs scored by Sachin}} = 75\]
Now we will add the total runs scored during the cricket match, we get
\[
   \Rightarrow 45 + 75 + 70 + 110 \\
   \Rightarrow 300 \\
 \]
Then we will find percentage by dividing the runs scored by Sachin with total runs scored and multiply it with 100, we get
\[
   \Rightarrow \dfrac{{75}}{{300}} \times 100 \\
   \Rightarrow 25\% \\
 \]

Therefore, the runs scored by Sachin from the given pie chart has \[25\% \].

Note: In solving these types of questions, we should be familiar that a Pie Chart is a type of graph that displays data in a circular graph. The pieces of the graph are proportional to the fraction of the whole in each category. In other words, each slice of the pie is relative to the size of that category in the group as a whole. The entire “pie” represents 100 percent of a whole, while the pie “slices” represent portions of the whole.
