6. Example
Students at Castle High School competed with local school in a series of Athletics events. The pie chart below represents the medals obtained by the students at Castle High.
A student is selected at random. What is the probability that the did not win a medal?
Why can you not work out how many students obtained medals for 1st place?
Given that 45 students took place in this competition from Castle High, how many students obtained 2nd place medal?
Angles 1st = 63, 2nd =117, 3rd = 72, none = 108
