Marginal Workers Angular Component
View Complete Answer & Explanation
Question (English)
If Marginal Workers are 9.9% of the population, their angular component in a pie diagram would be:
- 18°
- 36° ✓ Correct
- 54°
- 72°
Explanation:
Correct Answer Explanation
9.9% × 3.6° = 35.64° ≈ 36°.
Key Points:
- Formula: Angular component = Percentage × 3.6°.
- Marginal Workers: 12 crore out of 121 crore total = 9.9%.
- Main Workers: 29.8% = 107°, Non-workers: 60.3% = 217°.
- Total: 36° + 107° + 217° = 360° (complete circle).
Why Other Options Are Wrong
- A. 18°: Would correspond to about 5%, not 9.9%.
- C. 54°: Would correspond to about 15%, not 9.9%.
- D. 72°: Would correspond to about 20%, not 9.9%.
