            Pie Chart

            Like bar graphs, pie charts are also used to show and

            compare  data.  In  a  pie  chart,  a  circle  is  divided  into

            wedges. Each section of a pie chart shows a fraction                                          Others
                                                                                              School
            of the total amount. It shows the relation of parts to
                                                                                                bus

            To  understand  this  better,  let  us  have  a  look  at  the

            following example.

            This pie chart shows how children come to school.
                                                                                     1

            «  The yellow and orange are    of whole circle and shows that    of the
                                                          4                                                 4
