Construct a percentage bar chart of the overall mechanical quality ratings for each of the following: automobiles of United States origin; automobiles of Pacific Rim origin (Japan/Korea); and automobiles of European origin (Germany/Italy/Great Britain/Sweden). Compare the three distributions in a written report.

Based on the data in Table 2.23 (see page 100). This table gives the results of the J.D. Power initial quality study of 2014 automobiles. Each model is rated on overall mechanical quality and overall design quality on a scale from €œamong the best€ to €œthe rest€ (see the Scoring Legend).
