Example:

Locations Number of cars sold

Kane 52
Olean 40
Sheffield 45
Tionesta 43

Let us consider the Location names along the X-axis and the number of cars sold along the Y-axis.

Along the X-axis (needed for other diagrams only)

Along the Y-axis 1 square = 1unit

Figure: Bar Diagram for the Number of Cars Sold in Different Locations.

Example: the calculation for the pie chart is given below:

Locations Number of cars sold Angles (in K 0) (52 x 360)/180 = 1040

Kane 52 1040
Olean 40 800 (40 x 360)/180 = 800
Sheffield 45 900
Tionesta 43 860
Total 180
