Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A stacked bar chart is ideal for comparing the total number of Instagram likes across different days of the week while also breaking down those totals by the source (Jade's coffee shop vs. her competitors). This allows for both comparison of the total likes per day and an understanding of the distribution of likes among the competitors.
