The pie chart shows the distribution of 4320 students who graduated from four departments in a university. How many students graduated from the science department?
  • A.
    840
  • B.
    864
  • C.
    920
  • D.
    960
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation

(frac{text{science}}{text{graduates}}) = (frac{theta}{360}) x 4320
where (theta) + 100 + 80 + 108 = 360
(theta) = 360 – 288 = 360
(frac{text{science}}{text{graduates}}) = (frac{72}{360} times 4320)
= 864
