What percentage of the people liked Rocky the most ?
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

15%

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of people who likes Titanic is 25%, because there are 360° in a circle and 90° is used for Titanic. Hence

\frac{90}{360}  =  \frac{25}{100}

To find the percentage of people who liked Rocky the most, we subtract the rest from the total (100%)

100 - 25 - 20 - 30 - 10 = 15

Therefore, 15% of the people liked Rocky the most.
