A Pareto chart sorts data into categories and ranks them by frequency or impact. In data-driven decision making, this helps teams focus on the most significant contributors to a problem.
The chart combines bars and a cumulative line to highlight which factors account for the largest share of issues. This aligns with the Pareto principle and supports prioritization of improvement efforts.
Run charts track data over time, flowcharts describe processes, and cause charts are not a standard quality tool. Therefore, the correct answer is C.

I thought the cause chart was more about identifying root causes, but I could be mixing it up with something else.

I practiced a question similar to this, and I believe the Pareto chart is the one that shows the 80/20 rule.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about a flowchart being used for processes. Could it be that one?

I think the tool we're looking for is the Pareto chart. It helps prioritize issues based on their impact, right?
