Question

A total of 8.9 percent of the prime time viewing audience watched shows on ABC, 7.5 percent watched shows on CBS, 5.5 percent on Fox, 6.4 percent on NBC, 3.7 percent on Warner Brothers, and 3.6 percent on UPN. A total of 64.4 percent of the audience watched shows on other cable networks, such as CNN and ESPN. What will be the prime time viewing percentage of the pie chart for the following data? (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.) Prime time viewing ABC CBS Fox NBC Warner UPN :

Answer 1

Answer - viewing percentage of the pie chart for the following dates and would be -

ABC = 8.9%

CBS = 7.5%

FOX = 5.5%

NBC = 6.4%

WARNER = 3.7%

UPN = 3.6%

Alternatively to understand this, let us say there are 100 people in audience out of which 64.4 percent people watch shows on cable Networks and rest 35.6 are prime time viewers.

So, 8.9% people out of 35.6% watched shows on ABC,

7.5% out of 35.6% people watched shows on CBS

5.5% people out of 35.6% people watched shows on Fox

6.4% people out of 35.6% people watched shows on NBC

3.7% people out of 35.6% people watched shows on Warner

And remaining 3.6% people out of 35.6% people watched shows on UPN.

TOTAL = 8.9% + 7.5% + 5.5% + 6.4% + 3.7% + 3.6% = 35.6%

And other cable audience = 100% - 35.6% = 64.4%

So the above-mentioned data can be plotted in pie chart as,

Prime time viewers =

ABC = 8.9%

CBS = 7.5%

FOX = 5.5%

NBC = 6.4%

WARNER = 3.7%

UPN = 3.6%

Other cable networks viewers =

OTHERS = 64.4%

if the solution helped, please give it a thumbs up. Thank you.
