The pie chart above shows the expenditure of a family whose income is N30.000. If the expenditure on food is twice that on housing and that on school fees is twice that on transport, how much does the family spend on food?
A
N28,000
B
N12,500
C
N15,000
D
N25,000
correct option: b
school fees is 90o
Transport = 45o
Housing and food = 360 - (90 + 45) = 225
food \(\frac{2}{3} \times 225 = 150\)
expenses on food = \(\frac{150}{360} \times 30000\)
= N12500
Transport = 45o
Housing and food = 360 - (90 + 45) = 225
food \(\frac{2}{3} \times 225 = 150\)
expenses on food = \(\frac{150}{360} \times 30000\)
= N12500
