Explanation:

Step1: Recall circle - angle relationship

A full - circle has $360^{\circ}$.

Step2: Calculate central angle for track

The track team has 30% of the total. So the central angle $\theta$ for the track section is $\theta = 30\%\times360^{\circ}$.

Step3: Perform the calculation

$30\%\times360^{\circ}=\frac{30}{100}\times360^{\circ}= 108^{\circ}$.

Answer:

$108^{\circ}$
