EXERCISE 2

The following table contains information about top 5 causes of death in the United States in 2014, both overall (all age categories) and 15-24 years old group. Based on information in Table 1., construct two pie graphs (one for overall, one for 15-24 age group), showing percentages for each cause of death. Given current technology, pie charts are almost always generated by computer rather than drawn by hand. For the purpose of this assignment you can use either computer program (i.e. Excel, SPSS) or draw pie charts by hand (each pie chart is worth 15 points).
