Read Circle Graphs

A college bookstore creates a circle graph to display its monthly sales distribution across different departments. The graph shows that Textbooks account for \(50\%\) of total sales, Apparel accounts for \(25\%\), Supplies account for \(15\%\), and Electronics account for \(10\%\). If the total sales for the month are \(\$40,000\), calculate the dollar amount generated by the Textbooks department.

Answer = (1)

Refer to the student housing arrangements graph. If \(2,400\) total students participated in the housing survey, how many live in Greek Housing? (Recall that Greek housing represents the remaining fraction after accounting for Dorms: 40%, Apartments: 35%, and Home: 15%.)
