A 1-pound bag of Skittles contained 100 Red, 83 Green, 93 Orange, 80 Yellow, and 79 Purple colored Skittles. To create a pie chart of this data the angle for the slice representing each color must be computed. What is the degree measure of the slice representing the green Skittles rounded to the nearest degree?

Answer :

Answer: The degree of measure would be 68.69°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of red colored skittles = 100

Number of green colored skittles = 83

Number of orange colored skittles = 93

Number of yellow colored skittles = 80

Number of purple colored skittles = 79

So, Total number of colored skittles = [tex]100+83+93+80+79=435[/tex]

So, the degree of measure of the slice representing green skittles would be

[tex]\dfrac{83}{435}\times 360^\circ\\\\=68.69^\circ[/tex]

Hence, the degree of measure would be 68.69°.
