select the correct answer.
which type of visual representation is best for comparing data as percentages of a whole?
a. bar graph
b. pie chart
c. line graph
d. map

Explanation:

A pie chart is used to show the proportion of each category relative to the whole, as it displays data as slices of a circle where each slice represents a percentage of the total. A bar graph compares quantities, a line graph shows trends over time, and a map displays geographic information, so they don't fit for comparing percentages of a whole.

Answer:

B. pie chart
