Student Worksheet

Section A

The students at Mastermind Public School were asked the following question:

"Which of the following math teachers would you recommend for the 'Teacher of the Year Award'?"

Mr. Brain
Mr. Knowitall
Ms. Calculus
Ms. Imneverwrong

The following table shows the results

Teacher	How many voted for this teacher	Fraction of those who voted for this teacher	Percentage of those who voted for this teacher	Measurement of central angle
Mr. Brian	67	67/400	16.75%
Mr. Knowitall	89	89/400	22.25%
Ms. Calculus	161	161/400	40.25%
Ms. Imneverwrong	83	83/400	20.25%
Total (Verfication)	400

Note: Totaling each column will verify your calculations.

1. Using a protractor construct a circle graph by using some of the skills you have learned from geometry and the information from the above table. (Hint: You will need to convert the percent who voted for each teacher into a fraction of 360º).

Section B

1. At a local music store, 250 people were surveyed about their favourite Canadian artist. The table below shows the results. Complete the table and then construct a circle graph by hand to display the data.

Canadian Music Artist	People surveyed	Percentage	Measurement of central angle
Anne Murray	31
Bryan Adams	52
Alanis Morrisette	45
Céline Dion	90
Alana Miles	32
Total

1. What can you generalize from the information presented in the above table?
   
   
   
   
2. If you owned this music store which artists would you stock? Is there any other information you would like before making your decision?
