Question
A paint company asked a group of students about their favourite colours and made a pie chart of their findings. Use the information to answer the following questions.
How many students liked pink or blue?
Solution
| Class Intervals | Tally Marks | Frequency |
| 150 − 200 | II | 2 |
| 200 − 250 | III | 3 |
| 250 − 300 | IIII I | 6 |
| 300 − 350 | IIII | 5 |
| 350 − 400 | IIII II | 7 |
| 400 − 450 | IIII | 4 |
| 450 − 500 | III | 3 |
| Total | 30 | |
Total percentage of students = 100%
∴ 50 students = 100% – (30% + 20% + 25% + 15%)
= 100% – 90%
50 students = 10%
10% of total students = 50
∴ `10/100` (Total students) = 50
Total students = `(50 xx 100)/10` = 500
Total students = 500.
Students liked pink or blue = students liked pink + students liked blue.
= 30% of 500 + 25% of 500
= `30/100 xx 500 + 25/100 xx 500`
= 150 + 125
= 275
