Choosing the Right Graph
• Use a bar graph if you are not looking for trends (or patterns) over time; and the items (or categories) are not parts of a whole.
• Use a pie chart if you need to compare different parts of a whole, there is no time involved and there are not too many items (or categories). • Use a line graph if you need to see how a quantity has changed over time. Line graphs enable us to find trends (or patterns) over time.
