To calculate the percentage of the circle that the entertainment sector will occupy, we first need to find the total amount of money Jaclyn budgets for all her expenses.
Total budget = $125 (clothes and cosmetics) + $75 (entertainment) + $50 (school activities) + $250 (savings)
Total budget = $500
Now, we can calculate the percentage of the circle that the entertainment sector represents:
Percentage for entertainment = ($75 / $500) * 100
Percentage for entertainment = 15%
Therefore, the entertainment sector will occupy 15% of the circle graph.
Jaclyn earns $500 per month at her after-school job. She budgets $125 for clothes and cosmetics, $75 for entertainment, $50 for school activities, and $250 for savings. To display this information in a circle graph, what percentage of the circle will the entertainment sector be?(1 point)
