Homework for Wednesday, 3/25

Assignment: Pie Chart of your bag
There are a few key components to this assignment.  Only Anne & Annie visited at math lunch, so I'm going to assume the rest of you know what you are doing.  However, here is the nitty gritty:
1) All of the proportions you use should be set up on the left side of the page.  Write them as proportions using the percent of the color for your percent part and the number of M&Ms in your bag to = the 100%.  You must have the proportions written on your page.
2) After writing your proportions, you may solve for the number of degrees in your pie slices.  You may use a calculator for these.
3) Use a protractor to draw the lines for your pie chart after completing the computations.  The numbers you get represent the DEGREES of the circle you will use;
4) Lines should be straight (use a ruler or your protractor) and as close to accurate as possible to the angle measurements you have determined.
4) Your pie chart (aka circle graph) must have a title and labels.  Pie slices should have the color name written in as well as each PERCENT represented.
5) Pie slices must be colored according to the color they represent.
*If you lost your pie graph, get a large circle to trace and make your own; don't forget to include the proportions.
Due Thursday for an on-time sticker
