The answer depends on how many variables you wish to compare and whether of not the variables are related.
For example, if you have measurements of height and weight for a group of people, AND the two variables are tied, then a scatter graph is probably best. But if you cannot tie a height measurement to a weight measurement, then a clustered (or grouped) bar graph using two vertical axes is appropriate.
With more than 2 variables, you may wish to consider three-dimensional scatter plots or bar charts.
If you want to compare the amounts, as parts of a whole, concentric pie charts many be best. For example, two pies in which the inner pie represents a company's expenditure - with each slice representing inputs - and the outer pie representing revenues - with each slice representing outputs. The difference between the areas of the two pies could represent the profits.

What kind of information do graphs present?
Relationships of parts to a whole.
What are the types of smooth-line graph?
1. PICTORIAL GRAPHS. These are the kind found in mathematics and physics textbooks. Their purpose is to simply and clearly illustrate a mathematical relation. No attempt is made to show data points or errors on such a graph.2. DISPLAY GRAPHS. These present the data from an experiment. They are found in laboratory reports, research journals, and sometimes in textbooks. They show the data points as well as a smooth line representing the mathematical relation.3. COMPUTATIONAL GRAPHS. These are drawn for the purpose of extracting a numerical result from the data. An example is the calculation of the slope of a straight line graph, or its intercepts.

What kind of graph is used to compare data that does not change continuously?
If the data does not change continuously, it is called discrete data, and is commonly compared by use of a bar chart.Technical note: please note the use of the word chart, graph is commonly misused in a mathematical sense like this. A graph, mathematically, is a series/group of nodes that represent information and are connected by lines/edges that represent a link to other information. Bar graphs, line graphs, histogram graphs, bubble graphs, area graphs etc, are all technically chartsnot graphs. For more info see the link below on graph theory.
Which type of graph shows a relationship between data?
Any kind of properly drawn graph does. That's what graphs do.
What kind of graphs does not have any numbers?
Since graphs are usually used as pictorial representations of data, most will have numbers. While pictograms may not have axes, each image represents some number (which must be identified in a key or legend).
