Maths- Pie Chart

This week in maths we have been focusing on different ways to present data. In this activity I asked my class what there favourite brand of clothing was out of 5 options. I presented my data in a pie graph.

I served 25 students and the favourite brand is Nike as it has 9 people. Puma and Adidas are the least favourite both on three. Converse and the other option are also even on 5 as they are both on 20%.
If you add all the percentages they equal 100%.

A henna is paste usually made for body decoration. As well as using the paste for body art it is believed to have some healing and spiritual powers. When using this henna paste it is piped onto the body leaving a design to dry. After the design dries you take of the top layer of piping, then it will leave your skin coloured with the desired design.
