Question

In Fergusson's percentage unit system the circle is divided into -

A.

2 parts

B.

8 parts

C.

6 parts

D.

4 parts

Correct option is B


J.D. Fergusson devised a percentage system for dividing a circle that is inscribed in a square.
The circle is divided into 8 equal octants.
Each octant is divided into 100 parts, making the entire circle consist of 800 divisions.
These divisions are not equal in arc length, as they are based on percentage angles derived from the geometry of the circle.
