I will solve the problems on this worksheet by analyzing the pie chart and performing the necessary calculations. I'll go through each question one by one.
Question 1: What is this pie chart about?
By looking at the title of the chart, "Favorite Type of Movie," and the legend, I can see that it shows the number of students who prefer different movie genres: Comedy, Drama, Horror, SciFi, and Action.

Question 2: How many students like horror movies?
Looking at the pie chart, the yellow section is labeled "4 students" and corresponds to "Horror" in the legend.
Answer: 4 students

Question 3: What percent of students like action movies?
The grey section for "Action" shows "5 students". To find the percentage, I first need to calculate the total number of students.
Total students = Comedy (3) + Drama (6) + Horror (4) + SciFi (2) + Action (5) = 20 students.
Percentage for Action = (5 / 20) * 100% = 25%.
Answer: 25%

Question 4: What type of movie do most students like the best?
Looking at the numbers:
- Comedy: 3 students
- Drama: 6 students
- Horror: 4 students
- SciFi: 2 students
- Action: 5 students
Drama has the highest number with 6 students.
Answer: Drama

Question 5: What is the least liked movie type?
From the numbers above, SciFi has the lowest number with only 2 students.
Answer: SciFi

Question 6: How many students like drama than horror?
Drama has 6 students and Horror has 4 students.
Difference = 6 - 4 = 2 students.
Answer: 2 students

Question 7: What percent of students like sci-fi movies?
SciFi has 2 students out of a total of 20.
Percentage = (2 / 20) * 100% = 10%.
Answer: 10%

Question 8: What is the central angle of the sector for horror movies?
A full circle is 360 degrees. Horror represents 4 out of 20 students.
Central angle = (4 / 20) * 360° = 0.2 * 360° = 72°.
Answer: 72°

Question 9: What percent of students like comedy or sci-fi movies?
Comedy has 3 students and SciFi has 2 students.
Combined = 3 + 2 = 5 students.
Percentage = (5 / 20) * 100% = 25%.
Answer: 25%

Question 10: What is the total number of students who answered this survey?
As calculated earlier, the total is the sum of all students: 3 + 6 + 4 + 2 + 5 = 20 students.
