Correct Answer: $144^\circ$


Solution : Given: Total marks = 100%
Marks scored in Hindi = 24%
Marks scored in social science = 16%
Sum of marks scored in both = 24% + 16% = 40%
Central angle $=\frac{\text{Sum of marks in Hindi and social science}}{\text{Total marks}}\times360^\circ=\frac{40}{100}\times360^\circ=144^\circ$
Hence, the correct answer is $144^\circ$.
