Apt0810 · Answer

1)No,since the Rank 1 in terms of exhibit is from France while the Rank 1 in terms of pieces is from US
2)Yes, since the lowest rank in terms of number of exhibits has number = 169 = 0.7*(number for highest rank= 243)
3)No,since few of them have Code strating with B ...***but in the question in terms of rank for number of exhibits , 5th & 19th rank are missing*****
4)No,3 artists are there with value = 200 but that is > 15%

Hi, how are we figuring out the 'same category'? I think we cannot derive this information from the table given. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Official Explanation

False:  The top-ranking artist for total exhibits is from Paris, France.

True:  The lowest-ranking artist, in terms of number of exhibits, participated in 169 exhibits. The highest-ranking artist in this category participated in 243 exhibits. The lowest-ranking artist participated in 69.5 percent as many exhibits as did the top-ranking artist, or approximately 70 percent.

False:  The third-ranking artist for exhibits is code B309, so the third statement is false.

False:  A total of 3 artists participated in 200 exhibits. There are 18 artists listed in the table, so 3 artists represents 16.67 percent of the total, not 15 percent.

Hope it helps
