LO: To construct a simple pie chart and interpret proportions This chart shows how Fred spends an average school day. Fred spends 8 hours sleeping. As a fraction: 8 24 = 1 3 As a decimal: 8 ÷ 24=0. 3 As a percentage: 0. 3 × 100=33. 3 % Task: Calculate the proportions of your day spent on each activity. Give your answers as fractions, decimals and percentages, showing clearly how you worked each out.
LO: To construct a simple pie chart and interpret proportions Fred spends 2 hours eating and drinking. As a fraction: 2 24 = 1 12 The average life expectancy is about 80 years. In his life, Fred spends 1 12 of his time eating and drinking. So he spends 1 12 of 80 years eating and drinking. 1 12 × 80=6.666… Fred spends about 6-7 years of his life eating and drinking. Task: If you lived for 80 years, how much time would you spend on each of your activities? (You could group school/homework together to give 8 hours working, which is typical for an adult).
