Morphology
pie + chart
The meaning 'a circular graph divided into sections' is directly inferable from combining 'pie' (a round food usually cut into slices) with 'chart' (a visual display of data). The visual metaphor of a pie divided into slices mapping onto parts of a whole is common cross-linguistically, so a B1 learner who knows both words would readily understand the compound.
Etymology
Pie chart comes from the picture of a round pie cut into slices. Each slice looks like a 'part of a whole', so the chart shows how the parts compare in size.
