The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

Concept: In a pie chart: \[ 360^\circ = 100\% \] So percentage share is calculated as: \[ \frac{\text{Sector angle}}{360}\times100 \]

Step 1:
Find DELL’s angle.
Given sectors: \[ HP=110^\circ \] \[ HCL=60^\circ \] \[ ACER=70^\circ \] \[ ZENITH=35^\circ \] \[ OTHERS=55^\circ \] Total known: \[ 110+60+70+35+55=330^\circ \] So DELL: \[ 360-330=30^\circ \]

Step 2:
Convert into percentage.
\[ \frac{30}{360}\times100 \] \[ =\frac{1}{12}\times100 \] \[ =\frac{100}{12} \] \[ =8\frac{1}{3}\% \] Hence, the market share of DELL is: \[ \boxed{8\frac{1}{3}\%} \]

The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Concept: In a pie chart, the share of a category is: \[ \frac{\text{Sector angle}}{360^\circ}\times \text{Total quantity} \]

Step 1:
Take ACER’s angle from the pie chart.
ACER share: \[ 70^\circ \] Total computers sold: \[ 270000 \]

Step 2:
Apply the formula.
\[ \text{ACER sales}=\frac{70}{360}\times270000 \] \[ =\frac{7}{36}\times270000 \]

Step 3:
Simplify.
\[ 270000 \div 36=7500 \] \[ 7500\times7=52500 \] Thus, the number of computers sold by ACER is: \[ \boxed{52500} \]

Question: 3

How much percent more computers are sold by HP company than ZENITH in 2025?

Show Hint

For “how much more” questions, always divide by the smaller/base quantity.

  • \(134\frac{2}{7}\)
  • \(171\frac{3}{7}\)
  • \(185\frac{5}{7}\)
  • \(214\frac{2}{7}\)

The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Concept: To find how much percent one quantity is more than another: \[ \frac{\text{Difference}}{\text{Base value}} \times 100 \] Here, HP is compared with ZENITH.

Step 1:
Take values from the pie chart.
HP share: \[ 110^\circ \] ZENITH share: \[ 35^\circ \]

Step 2:
Find the difference.
\[ 110-35=75 \]

Step 3:
Calculate percentage more than ZENITH.
\[ \frac{75}{35}\times100 \] \[ =\frac{15}{7}\times100 \] \[ =\frac{1500}{7} \] \[ =214\frac{2}{7}\% \] Thus, HP sold more computers than ZENITH by: \[ \boxed{214\frac{2}{7}\%} \]
