Step1: Find the percentage of people who chose Furniture

From the circle - graph, the percentage of people who chose Furniture is \(10\%\).

Step2: Calculate the number of people who chose Furniture

We know that the total number of people surveyed is \(n = 40\). To find the number of people in the Furniture category, we use the formula \(x=\text{Percentage}\times n\). Substituting the values, we get \(x = 0.1\times40\) (since \(10\%=\frac{10}{100}=0.1\)).
