Creating a pie chart in excel
There are a few things you’ll need to set up to make a pie chart in excel:
- A worksheet with a column of data that you can split into pie slices (you can use a column of profits, sales, or percentages, for example)
- A column of pie chart shapes (nine circle, pie segments, or pie slices)
- A column of labels for the pie slices
To start, select your data and create a column of pie chart shapes. For example, I’ve used circles to represent profits, segments to represent sales, and slices to represent percentages.
Next, add a column of labels to the top of your worksheet. For my pie chart, I’ve labeled the circles “Profit”, the segments “Sales”, and the slices “Percentage”.
Now it’s time to create your pie chart. To do this, simply select the pie chart shapes and column of labels and drag them to the worksheet.
Your pie chart should look something like this:
Now it’s time to get creative! You can use the pie chart to make any kind of graph you want, including lines, squares, and more. You can also use it to compare different groups of data, or to see how your data changes over time.
