Re: The table below gives information on the total vehicles sold and the [#permalink]
Statement 1:
More Ford Focuses than Toyota Corollas were sold by this retailer: True.
Lets look at the numbers from 2011-2015 for:
Ford Focuses, total sold = 4703 + 1876 = 6579
Toyota Corollas, total sold = 4937
Given this limited info, and assuming these are the only variants in respective models, #ford focus sold is greater than # of Toyota Corollas sold. Hence True.

Statement 2:
The highest-selling blue model from each manufacturer was outsold by at least one other model from the same manufacturer: False.

From the table, sorted by make & number sold, we can see that this statement is not true for Toyota. Hence False.

Statement 3:
The Kia models all ranked lower than 20th in sales revenue: False.

From the table, we can see that Kia Sportage is ranked 9th in sales revenue. Hence False.

Statement 4:
No green car was among the top ten cars by rank in either numbersold or sales revenue: True.

This is true as evident from the table, ranked by numbersold and sales revenue respectively. Hence True.

Since we are dealing with True/False, let us straight jump into the statements, analyze them with the data presented and then deduce whether they are true or false

Statement 1: More Ford Focuses than Toyota Corollas were sold by this retailer.

Table: Sorted by Number Sold (Column 6)

Number of Toyota Corollas sold = 4,937
Number of Ford Focuses sold = 4,703

Ford Focuses < Toyota Corollas

FALSE


Statement 2: The highest-selling blue model from each manufacturer was outsold by at least one other model from the same manufacturer.

Table: Sorted by Color (Column 3) & Table: Sorted by Make (Column 2)

Toyota: NOT OUTSOLD
Subaru: OUTSOLD by Silver Forester
Ford: OUTSOLD by White Focus & by Black Fusion
Honda: OUTSOLD by Black Fit & by White Civic
Kia: OUTSOLD by Silver Sportage

The highest selling blue model from each manufacturer is outsold by at least one other model from the same manufacturer in all BARRING ONE MANUFACTURER (Toyota), in which the Toyota Corolla (Blue) is the highest selling amongst all the Toyotas

FALSE


Statement 3: The Kia models all ranked lower than 20th in sales revenue.

Table: Sorted by Sales Revenue (Column 9)

Kia Sportage: Rank 9
Kia Soul: Rank 18
Kia Optima: Rank 21
Kia Forte: Rank 23

As we can observe, two (out of four) Kia models ranked lower than 20th in sales revenue, not all

FALSE


Statement 4: No green car was among the top ten cars by rank in either number sold or sales revenue.

Table: Sorted by Color (Column 3)

Green Mitsubishi Eclipse: Rank (Number Sold) = 19, Rank (Sales Revenue) = 22
Green Kia Soul: Rank (Number Sold) = 23, Rank (Sales Revenue) = 18
Green Ford Focus: Rank (Number Sold) = 25, Rank (Sales Revenue) = 25

So, yes there are no green cars in the top ten by rank in either number sold or in sales revenue

TRUE


Answer:

More Ford Focuses than Toyota Corollas were sold by this retailer.

FALSE

The highest-selling blue model from each manufacturer was outsold by at least one other model from the same manufacturer.

FALSE

The Kia models all ranked lower than 20th in sales revenue.

No green car was among the top ten cars by rank in either numbersold or sales revenue.

Re: The table below gives information on the total vehicles sold and the [#permalink]
Statement 1: More Ford Focuses than Toyota Corollas were sold by this retailer.
TRUE.

Reason: Two colors of Focus are shown in the table; altogether, 6,579 of those were sold compared to only 4,937 Corollas.

Statement 2: The highest-selling blue model from each manufacturer was outsold by at least one other model from the same manufacturer.
FALSE.

Reason: Excluding Subaru (which didn't sell any blue car) and Toyota (Blue Corolla holds rank 1) the statement is true for all other manufacturers otherwise the statement is false.

Statement 3: The Kia models all ranked lower than 20th in sales revenue.
FALSE.

Reason: Sportage (rank 9 in sales revenue) and Soul (rank 18 in sales revenue) have ranks within top 20 in sales revenue segment.

Statement 4: No green car was among the top ten cars by rank in either numbersold or sales revenue.
TRUE.

There are 3 green cars: Kia's Eclipse (rank 19 in number sold, rank 22 in sales revenue) ; Mitsubishi's Soul (rank 23 in number sold, rank 18 in sales revenue); Ford's Focus (rank 25 in both category). All the 3 cars lie outside top 10 in either numbersold or sales revenue.

Official Explanation

More Ford Focuses than Toyota Corollas were sold by this retailer.

Two colors of Focus are shown in the table; altogether, 6,579 of those were sold compared to only 4,937 Corollas.

Answer: True

The highest-selling blue model from each manufacturer was outsold by at least one other model from the same manufacturer.

The blue Forte, Escape, Accord, and Outback were outsold by other models of the same make, but the blue Toyota Corolla was not outsold by any other Toyota model.

Answer: False

The Kia models all ranked lower than 20th in sales revenue.

The Kia models all ranked lower than 20th in number sold, two Kia models ranked higher than 20th in sales revenue.

Answer: False

No green car was among the top ten cars by rank in either numbersold or sales revenue.

Sorting the table by rank of both number sold and sales revenue, we can see that the top ten cars each time include no green cars.
