Answer to Question 1

The data provided presents a list of percentages. Susan can best depict the data accurately in a pie chart. Pie charts, like segmented charts and area charts, show how the parts of a whole are distributed. Pie charts are effective for showing parts of a whole, or in other words, percentages. In this instance, Susan can put each percentage in a slice of the pie chart.
