Hi Ram

In a bar chart, we can juxtapose two bars for comparison. However, we will need to separate pie charts to compare in given situation.

Kindly revert whether this is correct or not for choosing the option bar chart.

I think the right answer is pie chart only. How can it be Bar chart? If not so, kindly explain to me why is it not so.
