Solution

The central angle of a pie chart is calculated based on the percentage that each section represents out of the total 100%.

For Cuddles, who eats 20% of the food, the central angle can be calculated as follows:

Step 1: Understand that a full circle represents 100%, and in terms of degrees, a full circle is 360 degrees.

Step 2: To find the central angle for Cuddles, multiply the percentage by 360 degrees.

So, 20% of 360 degrees = 0.20 * 360 = 72 degrees.

Therefore, the measure of the central angle in the "Cuddles" section is 72 degrees.
