Directions: The following pie chart represents the amount spent on different sports by a school in a calendar year. If the amount spent on football is ₹ 9,000, answer the following questions :
What is the total amount spent on all the sports ?
₹ 72,000
The whole pie chart represents the total spending on all the sports, so the total is simply the value of the complete 360°.
Football covers 45° and stands for ₹ 9,000, so one degree is worth \(\frac{9{,}000}{45} = 200\) rupees.
The total is therefore \(360 \times 200 = 72{,}000\).
A quick check confirms this: Football 45°, Hockey 100°, Cricket 160°, Tennis 35° and Basketball 20° add to exactly 360°, so nothing has been left out.
Hence, the total amount spent on all the sports is ₹ 72,000.
