Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Let the monthly expenditure on school fees be x let the monthly expenditure on housing be 2x; angle of housing and school fee in a pie chart = 360o - (120o + 90o)
= 360o - 210o = 150o
Angle of housing in a pie-chart = \(\frac{2}{3}\) x 150 = 100
\(\frac{100}{360}\) x 7200 = N2,000
