Introduction

Pie charts are useful for indicating the relative proportions of the various components that make up a whole. The “slices” of pie charts, called sectors, are used to show the relative size of data.
 
Pie charts are useful because:
·       They present information in clear, systematic way
·       People take in visual information more clearly and quickly than words
·       It is easier to see relationships, patterns or trends
·       You can make comparisons more easily

Pie charts present information in a way that can be taken in visually all at once. However, it can be difficult to compare if different sectors are similar in size.
