Default Pie Chart

Make the pie chart using just this data
Product 1 7
Product 2 18
Then format the chart to include data labels; you can display any/all of:
category names, data and percentage
Have a look at:

I have the following data in Excel:

Total Percentage
Product 1 7 28%
Product 2 18 72%
Total 25 100%

I want to represent all data in a pie chart, but when I select three
columns
and select Insert Pie Chart, it displays data in a weird way. For example
it
shows total as 50%, Product 1 as 14% and Product 2 as 36%. Which is the
correct way to do it, so as to display real values?

Thanks in advance

Emece.-
