A 100% stacked bar chart displays multiple data series as proportional segments within each bar, where every bar is normalized to sum to 100%. This visualization emphasizes composition and relative proportions rather than absolute values, making it ideal for comparing how different components contribute to a whole across categories. It reveals patterns in distribution and share that might be obscured when absolute values vary significantly between categories.
