A pie chart (or a circle graph) is a circular chart divided into sectors, illustrating proportion. In a pie chart, the arc length of each sector (and consequently its central angle and area), is proportional to the quantity it represents. When angles are measured with 1 turn as unit then a number of percent is identified with the same number of centiturns. Together, the sectors create a full disk. It is named for its resemblance to a pie which has been sliced. The earliest known pie chart is generally credited to William Playfair's Statistical Breviary of 1801.[1][2]
The pie chart is perhaps the most ubiquitous statistical chart in the business world and the mass media.[3] However, it has been criticized,[4] and some recommend avoiding it,[5][6][7][8] pointing out in particular that it is difficult to compare different sections of a given pie chart, or to compare data across different pie charts. Pie charts can be an effective way of displaying information in some cases, in particular if the intent is to compare the size of a slice with the whole pie, rather than comparing the slices among them.[1] Pie charts work particularly well when the slices represent 25 to 50% of the data,[9] but in general, other plots such as the bar chart or the dot plot, or non-graphical methods such as tables, may be more adapted for representing certain information. It also shows the frequency within certain groups of information.
One third of the chart.
When you make your pie chart in Excel, set the parameters of the chart to display percent for each data item (slice of the pie).
Expressing 21 percent of the whole on a pie chart would take up 21/100 x 360 = 75.6 degrees.
Still 1%. Open Microsoft Excel. In A1 type "1%" and in A2 type "99%." Select both of them (click on A1 and press SHIFT +DOWN) and click "Insert" -> "Chart..." -> "Pie" and "Finish." The smaller slice is 1%.
A pie chart is a circle, which has 360 degrees. So 15% of 360 is 54 degrees.

Unable to provide a pie chart but the statistics are listed as follows. You can use the following percentages to construct a Pie Chart demonstrating the popularity of sports watched in America. The NFL at 31 percent, MLB is14 percent, NBA at 5 percent, NHL at 4 percent, MLS is11 percent, Tennis at 6 percent, Golf is 7 percent, MOTOR is 8 percent, College Football at 9 percent, College Basketball at 4 percent, and Other sport is 1 percent.
A pie chart is a circle, which has 360 degrees. So 15% of 360 is 54 degrees.
Assuming one hand is at 12 and the other at 3, then going clockwise that is 25% of the pie chart.
That's not a question.
108 degrees.
