Pie Chart

Definition: A circular chart divided into slices, where each slice represents a proportion of the whole.

When to Use: Use pie charts when you want to show the relative proportions of different categories that make up 100% of something. They are best for a small number of categories (generally less than 5-7) as too many slices become difficult to read.

VIDEO WATCHING TIPS:  Embedded videos will start at a lower resolution (making the video seem blurry) but typically improve in 10-15 seconds. Once the video is playing you can also select to watch at a higher resolution by selecting the gear icon, the quality drop down menu, then 720p. For a clear video you can also watch on YouTube.
