PIE CHART
Pie chart is a circular representation of the data depicting the relationship between a
whole and its parts. In a pie chart, a circle is divided intoa number of parts according
to the number of data items.
Example l: 200 students of Class V were asked to join any one of the following
clubs-the Quiz club, the Maths club, the Eco club and the Fine Arts club.
100 students joined Quiz club, 50 joined Maths club and the remaining
students were equally divided into Eco
club and Fine Arts club. Drawa pie chart
to represent the above data.
Out of 200, 100 joined Quiz cub

Rermaining students : =
200-(100 + 50) = 200-150 =
aremaining students are equally divided into two 50
clubs.
Therefore, 50 25 students in each club
Thus, out of 200, 25 joined Eco club, that is
