What is a Stacked Bar Graph?

A stacked bar graph is a multi-layered chart used to compare totals across different categories while simultaneously showing the breakdown of sub-groups within each bar. Each bar represents a total sum, and the segments within that bar represent the relative contribution of different data series. It is an excellent tool for visualizing part-to-whole relationships over time or across groups.
