When should a pie chart be used?

• To compare distributions

• To display numerical data

• To show correlation

• To emphasize each category's relation to the whole

What is a good idea when comparing distributions using bar charts?

• Use absolute frequencies

• Use relative frequencies

• Use both absolute and relative frequencies

• Use neither absolute nor relative frequencies
