Construction of pie chart:
Steps of construction-

Central angle for each item $=\Big(\frac{\text{Expenditure per month on various items}}{\text{Monthly income}}\times360\Big)^\circ$
Calculation of central angles,
| Items | Expenditure (in ₹) | Central angle |
| Rent | 8000 | 100° |
| Food | 10800 | 135° |
| Clothing | 5600 | 70° |
| Education | 3600 | 45° |
| Savings | 800 | 10° |
Steps of construction-
- Draw a circle of any convenient radius.
- Draw a horizontal radius of this circle.
- Draw sectors whose central angles are 100°, 135°, 70°, 45° and 10°.
- Shade the sectors so obtained differently and label each one of them.
