Monthly expenditure of a family on different heads is shown in the following pie chart. The family earns Rs. 2,16,000 every month.
How much (in Rs.) does the family spend on food and transport?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
From the pie chart:
- Food = 65°
- Transport = 50°
So, total angle for Food + Transport:
$65^\circ + 50^\circ = 115^\circ$
The family's monthly income is ₹2,16,000.
Amount spent on food and transport:
$\frac{115}{360} \times 216000$
Since,
$216000 \div 360 = 600$
Therefore,
$115 \times 600 = 69,000$
