What is a Pie Chart?
A pie chart is a circular statistical graphic divided into slices to illustrate numerical proportions. Each slice represents a category and its size is proportional to the percentage it represents of the whole. Pie charts are one of the most popular ways to visualize data because they make it easy to see the relative sizes of different categories at a glance.
When to Use Pie Charts
- ✓Part-to-Whole Relationships: Show how different parts make up a whole, like budget allocation or market share.
- ✓Percentage Distribution: Display how percentages add up to 100%, such as survey results or demographic data.
- ✓Limited Categories: Work best with 2-5 categories; too many slices make the chart hard to read.
- ✓Presentations: Ideal for business presentations, reports, and infographics where visual impact matters.
- ✓Quick Comparisons: Allow viewers to quickly understand the relative proportions of different segments.

3. Start at 12 O'Clock: Arrange slices starting from the top and going clockwise for better readability.
4. Include Percentages: Always show percentages so viewers understand the exact proportion each slice represents.
