Draw a pie chart for the given data.
Favourite food        Number of people
North Indian               30
South Indian               40
Chinese                        25
Others                          25

Solution:

We know that a pie chart has 360°

Total number of people = 30+40+25+25=120

From the given data,

North Indian = 30 = 120/4 ; 360/4 = 90°

South Indian = 40 = 120/3; 360/3 = 120°

Chinese = 25: 120/25; 360/5 = 75°

Others = 25: 120/25; 360/5 = 75°
