Pie Chart
A pie chart is a circular graph that is divided into slices to illustrate a percentage breakdown of a categorical variable being measured.
Example
This pie chart gives us a clear visual of this person’s expenditures.
Watch Out!
Make sure that all the slice add up to 100%
What is the pie chart lacking?
- Can see % of spending for each category but can’t see how much is actually spent in $.
- Doesn't show total $ expenditures, just 100%.
