Question 14/20: Set 3 - Try Out - General Reasoning (SNBT)

:00

Pay attention to the information from the following chart.

Spice Sales

Sales data for Garlic, Shallot, and Red Chili (Aug-Dec 2020).

The infographic above shows sales of spice types from August—December 2020 (in tons).

Based on the infographic above, the most correct statement is ...

The highest sales for all types of spices occurred in November 2020.

Shallot sales in January 2021 are predicted to be $76$ tons.

Garlic sales in January 2021 will exceed $100$ tons.

Shallot sales are always below red chili sales.

The smallest sales occur in shallot sales every month.

Based on the chart, we can tabulate the sales data (in tons) and their growth patterns as follows:

Month	Garlic (Pattern $+3, +6, +9...$ )	Shallot (Pattern $+6$ )	Red Chili
Aug	$58$	$48$	$54$
Sep	$61$ ( $+3$ )	$54$ ( $+6$ )	$58$
Oct	$67$ ( $+6$ )	$60$ ( $+6$ )	$62$
Nov	$76$ ( $+9$ )	$66$ ( $+6$ )	$68$
Dec	$88$ ( $+12$ )	$72$ ( $+6$ )	$72$
Jan (Prediction)	$103$ ( $+15$ )	$78$ ( $+6$ )	-

Let's verify each statement based on the table above:

Highest Sales: Occurred in December (Garlic $88$ ), not November.
Shallot Prediction Jan 2021: Should be $78$ tons, not $76$ tons.
Garlic Prediction Jan 2021: Predicted to reach $103$ tons. The statement that sales will exceed 100 tons is CORRECT.
Shallot vs Red Chili: In December, sales for both were equal ( $72$ tons), so Shallot is not always below Red Chili.
Smallest Sales: In December, Shallot was not the sole lowest as it equaled Red Chili.

In conclusion, the most accurate statement is that garlic sales in January 2021 will exceed $100$ tons.
