Answer:

15

Explanation:

You want to know the number of purple T-shirts when the circle graph for 100 shirts shows purple shirts in a sector of 54°.

Circle graph

In a properly made circle graph, the central angle of a sector is proportional to the value that sector represents.

If the whole graph represents 100 T-shirts, then a sector of 54° will represent the fraction (54°/360°) of those 100 shirts.

purple shirts = (54°/360°)×(100 shirts) = 15 shirts

Trenton's scouting group made 15 purple T-shirts.
