Description:

The image displays a Pareto Chart, a type of bar graph that represents causes of a particular event in descending order of frequency or magnitude, and is often used to pinpoint areas that would benefit the most from improvement efforts. In the chart, each bar reflects a type of failure (labeled from Failure 1 to Failure 10), with the height indicating the frequency of each failure type. Alongside the bars, a line graph, using a secondary vertical axis on the right, shows the cumulative percentage of the total number of failures. Starting at 25.64% with Failure 1 and reaching 100% by Failure 10, the chart facilitates the identification of the most significant contributing factors to an issue, consistent with the Pareto principle or the 80/20 rule.
