Here we will explain, calculate, and show you what fraction of a circle 237 degrees is. More specifically, if you draw two lines from the center of a circle, creating 237 degrees, what will the area between the lines be as a fraction of the whole circle?
A full turn on a circle is 360 degrees. Therefore, to calculate what fraction of a circle any number of degrees is, you can simply put the number of degrees over 360.
When we put 237 over 360 and simplify if necessary, we get the answer to "What fraction of a circle is 237 degrees?" as follows:
degrees/360 = fraction
237/360 = 79/120
237 degrees = 79/120
Below is an illustration showing you what 237 degrees and 79/120 of a circle looks like.
To create the illustration above showing you 237 degrees, we first drew a circle and then drew two lines from the center, separated by 237 degrees. The slice that the two lines create inside the circle is 79/120 of the circle.
