The idea
A pie chart splits a total into slices whose angle is the share each part takes. It works when the parts add up to a meaningful whole, such as a vote or a budget, and there are only a few. With many small slices, use a bar chart instead.
Where to use it
- Budget and spending shares
- Market share of a few competitors
- Survey answers as shares
- A simple split between two or three parts
