2. Pie Chart Questions

Firstly, let us see an example that is developed from a real SHL test question:

Typically, a pie chart question looks exactly like this. For sessions with different info given (some session/s may be empty). Your task is to calculate the numbers and percentages for each session and adjust the pie chart accordingly. These questions are generally straightforward and often involve solving simple equations to find the answers. Take this for example:

  1. Given that MBA = 11 so PhD = 11 * 5 = 55,
  2. We know Bachelor=Master, then we have the equation by setting Bachelor number as X: X+X+55+11=110, we have X=22.
  3. So we sort out the numbers and percentages for all: Bachelor (22, 20%); Master (22, 20%); PhD (55, 50%); MBA (11, 10%)
