Ask EduPadi AI for a detailed answer
Correct Option: B
5xo + (16x - 24)o + 5xo + (4x + 12)o + (6x + 12)o = 360o

360xo - 24 + 12 + 12 = 360o

36xo = 360o

xo = \(\frac{360^0}{36}\)

= 10o

Thus, the angle of sector representing Mathematics is 5 x 10o = 50o. Hence the number of students who offer mathematics is

\(\frac{55^o}{36} \times 80 \approx 11\)
