The table below shows the monthly sales (in units) of four electronic items in four different months.
In which month was the average sales of all items the second lowest?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
To find the month with the second lowest average sales, calculate the total or average sales for each month across all 4 items:
• January: 440
• February: 460
• March: 477.5
• April: 495
Arranging the months in ascending order of average sales: January (440) < February (460) < March (477.5) < April (495).
Thus, the month with the second lowest average sales is February.
