The circle-graph given here shows the spendings of a country on various sports during a particular year. Study the graph carefully and answer the questions given below it.
How much percent more is spent on Hockey than that on Golf?
27%
35%
37.5%
75%
Correct answer is D
Let the total spendings on sports be Rs. x. Then,
Amount spent on Golf = Rs. ( (36/360) x x ) = Rs. x/10
Amount spent on Hockey = Rs ( (63/360) x x ) = Rs. 7x/40
Difference = Rs. ( 7x/40 - x/10 ) = Rs 3x/40
Therefore Required percentage = Rs. [ (3x/40)/(x/10) x 100 ] % = 75%.
