In this lesson, I\u2019ll show you how you can get table values and display them as percentages inside a pie chart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are going to use the following data. You can copy and paste it into your worksheet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Object<\/td>Radius<\/td><\/tr>
Mars<\/td>3.4<\/td><\/tr>
Mercury<\/td>2.4<\/td><\/tr>
Venus<\/td>6.1<\/td><\/tr>
Earth<\/td>6.4<\/td><\/tr>
Pluto<\/td>1.2<\/td><\/tr>
Ganymede<\/td>2.6<\/td><\/tr>
Moon<\/td>1.7<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Add percentages to a Pie Chart<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Click any cell inside the table.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Navigate to Insert >> Charts >> <\/strong>Pie Chart<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    1. Go to Chart Tools >> Design >> Chart Layouts >> Quick Layout<\/strong>. From the list of options, some of them will display percentages.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
      \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      1. Choose the way you want the pie chart to be displayed. I chose the second option.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
        \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

        If you choose to display names with percentages, some of these names can be outside the pie chart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

        You can change it by grabbing one of the edges and making the chart a little bigger. You probably want to do it with the Shift<\/strong> key to keep the proportions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

        Now, all the names are inside the chart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        The other way you can do it, without changing the size of the pie chart, is by changing the size of the font<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
