Answer 1

Answer:

the size of the wedge for aqua pencils is 43°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A table showing the pencil collection

To find:

the portion that represents the aqua pencils in degree

The total number of pencils = 23 + 106 + 62 + 47 + 32

The total number of pencils = 270

In degrees:

Total angle in a circle = 360°

Size of the wedge for aqua = number of aqua pencils/total pencils × 360°

`\begin{gathered} Size\text{ of the wedge = }(32)/(270)\text{ }*360° \\ \\ Size\text{ of the wedge = 42.67\degree} \end{gathered}`

To the nearest degree, the size of the wedge for aqua pencils is 43°
