here when we calculate no. of students who play basketball form the given percentage 
the value ( count of students ) comes to be in decimal place 
Is this right to have count of students in decimals 
I think that when representing percentage of an integral value, it always should give integers not decimals

Pz clarify

Hi,
I didn't understand your question properly. 
But when we count the number of basketball players, count should be an integer value, it can not be decimal value.
The reltive frequency in percentage can have decimal values which is shown in pie chart.
I hope it is clear to you.
