    Question Showing Ratio/Percentage on an Excel Chart

    Hello. I've been given the information below and I've got to present a chart for that. To be honest, I don't even know how to start off with the data.

    Further information provided by the marketing groups suggests that Whoopie Cushions are preferred by boys at a ratio of 2:1, Itchy Powder is preferred by girls who buy 40% more than the boys, Invisible Ink Pens are bought equally by boys and girls. Fake Noses are a 'boy thing' as they account for 90% of sales, Rude Noise Discs are bought equally and Squirting Flowers are bought at a ratio of 3:1.
    I'd really appreciate it if anyone would help me out.

    Re: How do I start off?

    Set up a three column table with headings Item, Boys and Girls.
    Use the info to fill in each Item's name and Boy/Girl proportions.
    Insert a column chart of the third sub-type (100% Stacked Column), which compares the percentage each value contributes to a total across categories.

    Re: How do I start off?

    Your post does not comply with Rule 1 of our Forum RULES. Your post title should accurately and concisely describe your problem, not your anticipated solution. Use terms appropriate to a Google search. Poor thread titles, like Please Help, Urgent, Need Help, Formula Problem, Code Problem, and Need Advice will be addressed according to the OP's experience in the forum: If you have less than 10 posts, expect (and respond to) a request to change your thread title. If you have 10 or more posts, expect your post to be locked, so you can start a new thread with an appropriate title.
    To change a Title on your post, click EDIT then Go Advanced and change your title, if 2 days have passed ask a moderator to do it for you.

    PLEASE PM WHEN YOU HAVE DONE THIS AND I WILL DELETE THIS POST
    Hope that helps.
