# Pie charts

> Pie charts can be used to compare the relative proportions of a certain metric within a category. The data in a pie chart is displayed in slices that form a circular graph. Each slice of the pie is relative to the size of the category used for the chart. The entire chart represents the total (number or 100%) of the category, while each slice represents a part of the total. See the illustration below for an example.

## Introduction

Pie charts can be used to compare the relative proportions of a certain metric within a category. The data in a pie chart is displayed in slices that form a circular graph. Each slice of the pie is relative to the size of the category used for the chart. The entire chart represents the total (number or 100%) of the category, while each slice represents a part of the total. See the illustration below for an example.
