A student's daily time management tracking chart shows that they spend exactly \(6\text{ hours}\) out of every 24-hour day in formal class and study sessions. What percentage value should label this specific slice on a circle graph?
Answer = (1)
Correct Answer
(1) 25
Explanation
Find the ratio of study hours to the total daily hours and convert to a percent form:
\[ \text{Percentage} = \frac{6\text{ hours}}{24\text{ hours}} = 0.25 = 25\% \]
