Step 3: Click the "Insert Scatter or Bubble Chart", and select one of the bubble charts (e.g., 3-D Bubble);
Step 4: A Bubble Chart will be created.
Step 5: Change Chart Title: Click on the title then select the words inside the box to replace with the proper ones;
Step 6: Add Data Labels: Right click on the bubble chart, in the dialog box, select "Add Data Labels", this by default will add Y axis value.
To add both x-axis, y-axis and bubble size values, right-click the Y-axis value added above, then select "Format Data Labels", in the "Format Data Labels" window, select X value, Y value, and Size.
