Problem Analysis:
The task involves analyzing a pie chart and coloring its slices based on the colors of gifts shown in the image. The goal is to determine how many different colors of gifts there are and then color each slice of the pie chart using the corresponding gift colors.
#### Step 1: Identify the Colors of Gifts
From the image, we can see four groups of gifts, each with a distinct color:
1.
Green (two green gifts)
2.
Blue (four blue gifts)
3.
Red (one red gift)
4.
Yellow (two yellow gifts)
Thus, there are
4 different colors of gifts.
#### Step 2: Color the Pie Chart
The pie chart has 10 slices. We need to color each slice according to the number of gifts of each color:
-
Green: 2 gifts → Color 2 slices green.
-
Blue: 4 gifts → Color 4 slices blue.
-
Red: 1 gift → Color 1 slice red.
-
Yellow: 2 gifts → Color 2 slices yellow.
#### Step 3: Distribute the Colors
We will distribute the colors as follows:
- Color
2 slices green.
- Color
4 slices blue.
- Color
1 slice red.
- Color
2 slices yellow.
This ensures that the total number of slices (10) matches the total number of gifts (2 + 4 + 1 + 2 = 9). Note that one slice will remain uncolored since there are only 9 gifts in total.
Final Answer:
There are
4 different colors of gifts. The pie chart should be colored as follows:
- 2 slices green
- 4 slices blue
- 1 slice red
- 2 slices yellow
