Excel gives you the ability to chart or graph data in your worksheet. Describe the main chart types (line, pie, and bar) and their purpose. Also describe how to insert a chart in your worksheet.

What will be an ideal response?

- A line chart is used to show data that changes over time.
- A pie chart illustrates the proportion of parts to a whole.
- A bar chart (sometimes called a column chart) is used to show comparisons.
- To insert a chart to the worksheet: Select the cells containing data to be included in the chart; then, on the INSERT tab, select a chart type from Charts group, and select a chart subtype.
