we can use the cross multiplication
we know that the full angle of a circle is 360° so the total angle corresponds to 60 students
so, what is 72 degrees?
[tex]\begin{gathered} 360\longrightarrow60 \\ 72\longrightarrow x \end{gathered}[/tex]where x is the number of students than said giraffes
[tex]\begin{gathered} x=\frac{72\times60}{360} \\ \\ x=12 \end{gathered}[/tex]the students than said giraffes are 12
