Show Answer Key & Explanations Step-by-step solution for: Pie Charts — Travelling to School: Foundation (Year 6) | CGP Plus
Now I can see the Year 6 pie chart clearly. It's also divided into 8 equal segments, with:
- 2 orange segments (Walk)
- 2 green segments (Cycle)
- 2 blue segments (Car)
- 2 purple segments (Bus)

Since there are 56 children in Year 6 and the pie chart is divided into 8 equal parts, each segment represents 56 ÷ 8 = 7 children.

Let me now answer question 3: "What fraction of children in Year 6 walk to school?"
Since 2 out of 8 segments represent walking, the fraction is 2/8, which simplifies to 1/4.

Now let me answer question 4: "How many children in Year 6 walk to school?"
Since each segment represents 7 children and there are 2 segments for walking, that's 2 × 7 = 14 children.

Let me now answer question 5: "How many more children walk to school in Year 6 than in Year 3?"
From earlier, I calculated that 14 children walk in Year 6 and 16 children walk in Year 3.
So, 14 - 16 = -2, which means 2 fewer children walk in Year 6 than in Year 3.

Wait, let me recheck my calculation for Year 3 walking. I previously calculated that 2 segments × 8 children per segment = 16 children walk in Year 3. And for Year 6, 2 segments × 7 children per segment = 14 children walk. So yes, 2 fewer children walk in Year 6 than in Year 3.

Let me now answer question 6: "How many more children go to school in the car in Year 3 than in Year 6?"
For Year 3: 2 segments × 8 children per segment = 16 children go by car
For Year 6: 2 segments × 7 children per segment = 14 children go by car
So, 16 - 14 = 2 more children go by car in Year 3 than in Year 6.

Let me now answer question 7: "How many children in Years 3 and 6 get the bus to school?"
For Year 3: 2 segments × 8 children per segment = 16 children get the bus
For Year 6: 2 segments × 7 children per segment = 14 children get the bus
Total: 16 + 14 = 30 children get the bus in both years combined.

Finally, let me answer question 8: "Which is more popular overall — walking/cycling to school, or getting a lift to school in a car/bus?"
I need to calculate the total for walking/cycling vs. car/bus for both years combined.

Walking/Cycling:
Year 3: Walking (16) + Cycling (16) = 32
Year 6: Walking (14) + Cycling (14) = 28
Total walking/cycling: 32 + 28 = 60

Car/Bus:
Year 3: Car (16) + Bus (16) = 32
Year 6: Car (14) + Bus (14) = 28
Total car/bus: 32 + 28 = 60

Both are equally popular with 60 children each.

Let me summarize all the answers:

1. Fraction of children in Year 3 who cycle to school: 1/4
2. Number of children in Year 3 who cycle to school: 16
3. Fraction of children in Year 6 who walk to school: 1/4
4. Number of children in Year 6 who walk to school: 14
5. How many more children walk to school in Year 6 than in Year 3: -2 (or 2 fewer)
6. How many more children go to school in the car in Year 3 than in Year 6: 2
7. Number of children in Years 3 and 6 who get the bus to school: 30
8. Which is more popular overall: Walking/cycling and car/bus are equally popular (60 each)
