Question

The following table shows the sales (in thousands) of four products over three months. What is the total sales of Product A across all months? 

• A. 155
  
• B. 160
  
• C. 165
  
• D. 170
  

Hint:

For table-based DI questions, extract relevant data and perform calculations systematically, ensuring unit consistency.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

- Step 1: Identify the relevant data. The table provides sales for Product A in January (50), February (60), and March (55), all in thousands.
- Step 2: Sum the sales. Total sales for Product A = $50 + 60 + 55$.
- Step 3: Perform the addition. Calculate step-wise: $50 + 60 = 110$, then $110 + 55 = 165$.
- Step 4: Interpret units. Since sales are in thousands, total = 165 thousand.
- Step 5: Compare with options. Options are in thousands: (1) 155, (2) 160, (3) 165, (4) 170. The calculated total matches 165.
- Step 6: Verify. Recheck: $50 + 60 = 110$, $110 + 55 = 165$. No errors in calculation.
- Step 7: Conclusion. Option (3) is correct.
