Mermaid

Show how your data breaks down into parts of a whole at a glance. This template turns numbers into visual proportions, making it instantly clear which segments dominate and which are smaller. Great for presenting survey results, budget allocations, market share, or any data where percentages and relative sizes matter more than exact values.

How to create a Data Distribution Pie Chart

To create a data distribution pie chart, follow these steps:

01.
Define your dataset
Identify what you're measuring and ensure all parts add up to a meaningful whole.
02.
Gather values
Collect the numerical data for each category you want to represent.
03.
Choose categories
Select the segments that will make up your pie (typically 3-7 categories work best for clarity).
04.
Add a clear title
Label your chart so viewers immediately understand what data they're looking at.
05.
Assign values to segments
Input the numbers for each category — the chart automatically calculates proportions.
06.
Use distinct labels
Name each slice clearly so there's no confusion about what each segment represents.
07.
Review proportions
Check that the visual sizes match your expectations and accurately reflect the data.
08.
Share insights
Use the pie chart in presentations, reports, or dashboards where quick visual comparison matters.
