Some people were asked to choose their favourite fruit. The pie chart shows information about the results. 120 people chose Banana. How many people chose Apple?

Step 1: Find the angle for the Banana sector. A pie chart represents a full circle, which is 360°. The angle for Pear is indicated by the square symbol, which means it is a right angle, 90°. The other given angles are 48° for Apple and 78° for Other. Angle for Banana = 360° - (Angle for Pear + Angle for Apple + Angle for Other) Angle for Banana = 360° - (90° + 48° + 78°) Angle for Banana = 360° - 216° Angle for Banana = 144° Step 2: Find the number of people per degree. We are told that 120 people chose Banana, which corresponds to an angle of 144°. People per degree = 120 people / 144° = 5/6 Step 3: Calculate the number of people who chose Apple. The angle for Apple is 48°. Number of people for Apple = Angle for Apple × People per degree Number of people for Apple = 48° × (5/6) Number of people for Apple = (48 × 5) / 6 = 240 / 6 = 40. So, 40 people chose Apple.
