To find the number of degrees for the sector representing Christmas, we first need to find the total number of people who responded to the survey:
35 (Christmas) + 34 (birthdays) + 18 (Valentine's Day) + 8 (Mother's Day/Father's Day) + 5 (anniversary) = 100
Next, we need to calculate the percentage of people who answered Christmas:
35 (Christmas) / 100 (total responses) * 100 = 35%
Finally, we need to convert the percentage into degrees. Since a full circle has 360 degrees, we can calculate the degrees for the Christmas sector:
35% * 360 = 126 degrees
Therefore, the sector representing the response of Christmas will be 126 degrees in the circle graph.
George asked 100 people to name a holiday on which gifts are given.
35 people answered Christmas.
34 people answered birthdays.
18 people answered Valentine’s Day.
8 people answered Mother’s Day or Father’s Day.
5 people answered anniversary.
If George makes a circle graph to represent the data, how many degrees will the sector representing the response of Christmas be?
