Answer 1

To find the measure of the central angle, you would multiply the decimal form of the percentage by 360 (since there are 360 degrees in a full circle)

For example, say the percentage is 25%

25% of 360 = 0.25*360 = 90

so the central angle of this example slice is 90 degrees

Answer 2

Why do we do so?

Answer 3

Multiply a decimal by a number to get it I mean. What's the reason for doing so?

Answer 4

do you agree that 25% in decimal form is 0.25 ?

Answer 5

Yes!

Answer 6

so when I took 25% of 360, I multiplied 0.25 with 360 to get 90

notice how 90 degrees is 1/4 of a circle and how 1/4 = 0.25 = 25%

Answer 7

Alright. Now what should I do. That makes sense.

Answer 8

look at the instructions

it wants you to find the central angles for sleeping and eating

Answer 9

so you'll use my example to compute the central angles

Answer 10

33% of 360 = ???
