#### Question

The pie-chart given in the following represents the expenditure on different items in constructing a flat in Delhi. If the expenditure incurred on cement is Rs 112500, find the following:

(i) Total cost of the flat.
(ii) Expenditure incurred on labour.

#### Solution

(i) Expenditure incurred on cement  =

$\frac{\text{ Central angle of the corresponding sector } \times\text{ Total cost }}{360^\circ}$
Total cost of the flat = $\frac{360^\circ \times 112500}{75^\circ} =\text{ Rs }540000$
(ii) Expenditure incurred on labour = $\frac{\text{ Central angle of labour sector }\times\text{ Total cost }}{360^\circ}$$= \frac{100^\circ \times 540000}{360^\circ} =\text{ Rs }150000$
Is there an error in this question or solution?
