Is this pie chart misleading? Explain
Yes, the pie chart is misleading. It suffers from over-segmentation, which means it includes too many categories, making it difficult to interpret the relative sizes of the segments accurately. Pie charts are most effective with a limited number of categories, ideally fewer than six, to clearly show the proportions. With 12 segments, this pie chart creates visual clutter and can confuse viewers, leading to a misinterpretation of the data.
