Common misconception
Pupils may make errors interpreting information from pie charts, especially with making links between angles, fractions, percentages and working out an answer to a question.
Display 'benchmarks' in the classroom, showing a pie chart with labelled sectors (e.g. showing that 10% is equal to one tenth or 36° of the chart; 25% is equal to one quarter or 90°).
