Which cells in table 3 contain numeric data with the least value?

  • A. A5
  • B. B5
  • C. C5
  • D. D5

Correct Answer: B

Explanation
To determine which cell in Table 3 contains the numeric data with the least value, we need to analyze the values presented in the table for each subject across the three Senior High School (SHS) levels. Let's break down the process step-by-step. Step 1: Identify the Numeric Values From the table, we can extract the numeric values for each subject (Maths, ICT, and English) across the three SHS levels:
  • SHS1:
  • Maths (B3): 3450
  • ICT (C3): 4500
  • English (D3): 5678
  • SHS2:
  • Maths (B4): 8765
  • ICT (C4): 6580
  • English (D4): 9000
  • SHS3:
  • Maths (B5): 2456
  • ICT (C5): 4009
  • English (D5): 4400
Step 2: List All Values Now, let's list all the numeric values we have:
  • SHS1: 3450, 4500, 5678
  • SHS2: 8765, 6580, 9000
  • SHS3: 2456, 4009, 4400
Step 3: Find the Minimum Value Next, we need to find the minimum value among all these numbers:
  • From SHS1:
  • Minimum = 3450
  • From SHS2:
  • Minimum = 6580
  • From SHS3:
  • Minimum = 2456
Now, comparing these minimums: - 3450 (SHS1) - 6580 (SHS2) - 2456 (SHS3) The smallest value among these is 2456, which is found in cell B5 (Maths for SHS3). Step 4: Evaluate the Options Now, let's evaluate the options provided:
  • A. A5: This cell is empty and does not contain any numeric data.
  • B. B5: This cell contains the value 2456, which is the least value.
  • C. C5: This cell contains the value 4009, which is greater than 2456.
  • D. D5: This cell contains the value 4400, which is also greater than 2456.
Conclusion The correct answer is B. B5, as it contains the least numeric value of 2456. Summary of Why Other Options are Incorrect
  • A. A5: Incorrect because it is empty and contains no numeric data.
  • C. C5: Incorrect because it contains 4009, which is greater than 2456.
  • D. D5: Incorrect because it contains 4400, which is also greater than 2456.
Revision Summary
  • The task was to find the least numeric value in the table.
  • The values were extracted from the table for each subject and SHS level.
  • The minimum value found was 2456 in cell B5.
  • The correct answer is B. B5, as it contains the least value compared to other options.
