How a pie chart is calculated

Each slice is its value divided by the total. Percent = value ÷ total × 100, and angle = value ÷ total × 360°. All the angles add up to 360° and all the percents to 100%.

Example

A budget has Rent 1,200, Food 450, Transport 220, Savings 300 and Fun 180, a total of 2,350. Rent is 1,200 ÷ 2,350 = 51.1%, which is an angle of 184°.
