(a) How many children spend at least one hour in playing games?
(b) How many children spend more than 2 hours in playing games?

Given below is a pie chart showing the time spend by a group of 350 children in different games. Observe it and answer the questions that follow. (a) How many children spend a

Solution:

(a) From the pie chart, children playing at least 1 hour can be calculated as follows

Atleast 1 hour= total pie chart - less than 1 hour

= 100% - 6% = 94%

Now 94% of 350 = 94/100 * 350 = 329

Therefore, the number of children playing atleast 1 hour are 329

(b) Number of children spending more than 2 hours = 34% + 10% + 4% = 48%

Now 48/100 * 350 = 168

Therefore, the number of children playing more than 2 hours are 168.

(c) Number of children spending 3 or lesser hours are 100% - 14% = 86%

Now 86% *350 = 86/100 * 350 = 301

Therefore, number of children playing 3 or lesser hours are 301

(d) Number of children who play for less than one hour are 6% and number of children who play For 2 or more hours are 48% + 30% = 78%

Clearly, 78% of 350 is more than 6% of 350.
