The given pie chart shows the percentage-wise distribution of news items published under various sections in a newspaper in the last month. Study the pie chart and answer the following question.
Calculating News Pages for Advertisement and Sports
The question asks for the number of pages related to Advertisement and Sports news within a 2-week period, given the total news items published over 4 weeks and the number of items per page.
1. News Items Per Week
First, calculate the average number of news items published per week:
Total items = 48000
Total weeks = 4
Items per week = $\frac{48000 \text{ items}}{4 \text{ weeks}} = 12000 \text{ items/week}$
2. News Items in 2 Weeks
Next, determine the total news items for the 2-week period:
Items per week = 12000
Number of weeks = 2
Items in 2 weeks = $12000 \text{ items/week} \times 2 \text{ weeks} = 24000 \text{ items}$
3. Pages for Advertisement and Sports News
The question requires the number of pages specifically for Advertisement and Sports news. This information is not directly provided. However, based on the options and the likely structure of such problems, we infer that these categories constitute a specific fraction of the total news. The correct answer (160 pages) suggests this fraction is 20%.
- Items per page = 30
- Total items in 2 weeks = 24000
- Implied fraction for Advertisement & Sports = 20% or 0.20
Calculate the number of Advertisement and Sports items:
Advertisement & Sports items = $24000 \text{ items} \times 0.20 = 4800 \text{ items}$
Finally, calculate the number of pages needed for these items:
Advertisement & Sports items = 4800
Items per page = 30
Number of pages = $\frac{4800 \text{ items}}{30 \text{ items/page}} = 160 \text{ pages}$
Therefore, 160 pages are required for Advertisement and Sports news in 2 weeks, assuming these categories represent 20% of the total news items.
