Slices | |
Proportions | The size of each slice is directly proportional to the quantity or percentage it represents relative to the whole dataset. Larger slices indicate higher proportions, while smaller slices represent lower proportions.
|
Totality | The sum of all the slices in the pie chart equals 100%, representing the entirety of the data. This ensures that the chart provides a complete and accurate depiction of the dataset.
|
Color or Patterns | Different colors or patterns are typically used to differentiate between slices, making it easier to distinguish and interpret the various categories. These visual distinctions help in quickly identifying and comparing the segments of the chart.
