Question 1 Report

The distribution by state of 840 students in the Faculty of Science of a Nigerian University in a certain session is as follows:

Bendel 45
kwara 410
Ogun 105
Ondo 126
Oyo 154

In a pie chart drawn to represent this distribution, the angle subtended by Ondo is

Answer Details
To find the angle subtended by Ondo in the pie chart, we need to first calculate the total number of students in the Faculty of Science. Total number of students = 45 + 410 + 105 + 126 + 154 = 840 Next, we need to find the percentage of students from Ondo: Percentage of students from Ondo = (Number of students from Ondo / Total number of students) x 100 = (126/840) x 100 = 15 Since there are five states in total, and the pie chart represents 360 degrees, we can find the angle subtended by Ondo as follows: Angle subtended by Ondo = (Percentage of students from Ondo / 100) x 360 = (15/100) x 360 = 54 degrees Therefore, the answer is (e) 54o.
