1. For each of the following cashiers, select Yes if the information provided indicates that the cashier had a greater number of transactions than the amount indicated in Goal 3 for each of Months 1, 2, and 3. Otherwise, select No.
Goal 3 says that each cashier must have at least 1,800 transactions in every month.
Cashier 5 had 2,041, 1,789, and 1,790 transactions, so fell below 1,800 in Months 2 and 3.
Cashier 6 had 1,994, 2,045, and 1,981 transactions, all above 1,800.
Cashier 7 had 1,786, 1,744, and 1,970 transactions, falling below 1,800 in the first two months.
Answer: Cashier 5 - No; Cashier 6 - Yes; Cashier 7 - No
2. For each of the following values, select Yes if the information provided indicates that the value was greater for Month 1 than for Month 3. Otherwise, select No.
The total number of transactions was 14,242 in Month 1 and 13,585 in Month 3, so it was greater in Month 1.
The total value of all transactions was £159,937.66 in Month 1 and £165,193.60 in Month 3, so it was lower in Month 1.
The average value per transaction was 159,937.66 divided by 14,242, or about £11, compared with 165,193.60 divided by 13,585, or about £12, so it was lower in Month 1.
Answer: Total number - Yes; Total value - No; Mean value - No
3. Consider the following incomplete statement:
If Goal _____ is met next month, then Goal 6 will also be met next month.
Goal 6 requires that the overall average value of all transactions be greater than £10.
If Goal 5 is met, meaning each cashier’s average transaction value is greater than £10, then combining all their transactions will still produce an overall average greater than £10. Therefore, meeting Goal 5 ensures that Goal 6 is also met.
Answer: Goal 5
Goal 3 says that each cashier must have at least 1,800 transactions in every month.
Cashier 5 had 2,041, 1,789, and 1,790 transactions, so fell below 1,800 in Months 2 and 3.
Cashier 6 had 1,994, 2,045, and 1,981 transactions, all above 1,800.
Cashier 7 had 1,786, 1,744, and 1,970 transactions, falling below 1,800 in the first two months.
Answer: Cashier 5 - No; Cashier 6 - Yes; Cashier 7 - No
2. For each of the following values, select Yes if the information provided indicates that the value was greater for Month 1 than for Month 3. Otherwise, select No.
The total number of transactions was 14,242 in Month 1 and 13,585 in Month 3, so it was greater in Month 1.
The total value of all transactions was £159,937.66 in Month 1 and £165,193.60 in Month 3, so it was lower in Month 1.
The average value per transaction was 159,937.66 divided by 14,242, or about £11, compared with 165,193.60 divided by 13,585, or about £12, so it was lower in Month 1.
Answer: Total number - Yes; Total value - No; Mean value - No
3. Consider the following incomplete statement:
If Goal _____ is met next month, then Goal 6 will also be met next month.
Goal 6 requires that the overall average value of all transactions be greater than £10.
If Goal 5 is met, meaning each cashier’s average transaction value is greater than £10, then combining all their transactions will still produce an overall average greater than £10. Therefore, meeting Goal 5 ensures that Goal 6 is also met.

1. For each of the following cashiers, select Yes if the information provided indicates that the cashier had a greater number of transactions than the amount indicated in Goal 3 for each of Months 1, 2, and 3. Otherwise, select No.
| Yes | No | |
| Cashier 5 | ||
| Cashier 6 | ||
| Cashier 7 |
Cashier 5: 2041,1789,1790-NO
Cashier 6: 1994,2045,1981-YES >1800
Cashier 7: 1786,1745,1970-NO
2. For each of the following values, select Yes if the information provided indicates that the value was greater for Month 1 than for Month 3. Otherwise, select No.
We are given total value of transactions in each of the three months in th eTAB 3. However, there is no other information which could help us break down these values amongst the seven cashier.
But the number of transactions month wise for each cashier is given in TAB 2.
Thus, Number of transactions can be found but not values.
The total number of transactions for the month........YES
The total value of all transactions for the month........We can see that the total value of transactions for month 3 is greater than month 2.......NO
The arithmetic mean value of all the transactions for the month......NO
3. Consider the following incomplete statement:
If Goal _____ is met next month, then Goal 6 will also be met next month.
Which one of the following would complete the statement such that it must be the case based on the information provided?
A. 1
B. 2
C. 3
D. 4
E. 5
