Imagine sharing a giant round pizza with your friends! A pie chart is a circle cut into slices to show numbers and choices.
Every slice shows a part of the whole group, just like a slice of pie.
How do we split a circle fairly for 2 people?
Slicing into Halves
When you cut a circle straight down the middle, you get 2 equal parts called halves.
Each half is written as 21β, which is also called 50 percent (50%).

Slicing into Quarters
Cut across the circle from top to bottom and left to right to make 4 equal parts called quarters.
Each quarter is written as 41β, which represents 25 percent (25%) of the circle.
