Multiple horizontal bar-charts in a row in latex

Question

I have three horizontal bar-charts that I created using both the Tikz package and PGF plots package in latex. I am using Overleaf. The three horizontal bar-charts look like the following:

Is there a way to nest these horizontal bar-charts in a row in a latex document? I need this in order to save space for a paper I am working on. So what I am looking for is this (note: this 2nd image is meant to illustrate what I am looking for exactly):

This is the set up currently:

Have a look at the subcaption package. Unrelated to your problem: never put a `figure` environment inside a `center` environment. — samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz, May 12 '20 at 07:34
Why is that? Why should you never put a figure inside a center environment? Sorry, kind of a newb at latex. — Iris, May 12 '20 at 20:13
The one defining characteristic of a `figure` is that it floats, e.g. that tex automatically searches the best possible position. With the center environment your figure is no longer able to float, so there is no point in using a figure environment in the first place, you could just put the content directly into the document. — samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz, May 12 '20 at 20:27
