Pareto's vital few

Frequently found as "Pareto chart vital few": the first few causes that are responsible for most of the interesting cases, roughly described according to the 20/80 rule.
Peer comment(s):

agree Didier Fourcot : Also possible, seen here "vital few against trivial many": http://www.whatissixsigma.net/pareto-chart-and-analysis/

Pareto's top end

Seen in this reference:
https://www.businessballs.com/self-management/paretos-80-20-...
So even where a situation does contain a 80:20 correlation, other ratios might be more significant, for example:
99:22 (illustrating that even greater concentration than 80:20 and therefore significance at the 'top-end') or
5:50 (i.e., just 5% results or benefit coming from 50% of the input or causes or contributors, obviously indicating an enormous amount of ineffectual activity or content).
