Correct Answer: Only II


Solution : The total price of A1, A2, A4, and A6 is 2772.
$\frac{\text{Sum of degrees of A3 and A5}}{\text{Total degrees in the pie chart}}$ × Total price
Total Price = 5040
⇒ Price of A1 = $\frac{32}{360}$​ × 5040 = 448
⇒ Price of A2 = $\frac{46}{360}$​ × 5040 = 644
⇒ Price of A3=$\frac{132}{360}$​ × 5040 = 1848
⇒ Price of A4 = $\frac{50}{360}$​ × 5040 = 700
⇒ Price of A5 = $\frac{30}{360}$​ × 5040 = 420
⇒ Price of A6 = $\frac{70}{360}$​ × 5040 = 980
So, total price for A1, A2, A4, and A6 = 448 + 644 + 700 + 980 = 2772, which is correct
⇒ Total Price for A3 and A5 = 1848 + 420 = 2268
and, Total Price for A4 and A6 = 700 + 980 =1680
⇒ 2268 − 1680 = 588 is not equal to 488
So, statement II is not correct.
Hence, the correct answer is only II.
