Represent the following data with the help of pie diagram :


Items



Wheat



Rice



Tea



Production (in metric Tons)



3260



1840



900




Here, total production = 6000 metric tons


So,


The central angle = × 360°


Hence, the central angle for each activity will be calculated as follows


Item



Production
(in metric tons)



Sector angle (degree)



Wheat



3260



3260/6000 x 360 = 195.6



Rice



1840



1840/6000 x 360 =110.4



Tea



900



900/6000 x 360 = 54



Steps for construction of representation of data in pie chart


Step 1: Draw the circle of appropriate radius.


Step 2 : Choose a radius anywhere inside the circle.


Step 3 : Now draw a sector of calculated component’s central angle. It is always preferable to choose component with largest central angle first and then continue in descending order of magnitude of their central angle.


Step 4: After drawing sectors, shade them with different colours and label them as shown in the figure.
