Let’s look at the question:
> 1. In 2017, the total number of communication activities was:
We are given a table that lists different types of communication activities and how many times they happened in 2017.
The table says:
- Email: 400
- Phone calls: 350
- Video conferences: 200
- Meetings: 150
- Social media posts: 100
To find the
total, we add all these numbers together.
Step-by-step addition:
Start with Email + Phone calls:
400 + 350 = 750
Add Video conferences:
750 + 200 = 950
Add Meetings:
950 + 150 = 1,100
Add Social media posts:
1,100 + 100 = 1,200
So, the total is 1,200.
Double-check by adding again in a different order:
400 (Email)
+ 350 (Phone) = 750
+ 200 (Video) = 950
+ 150 (Meetings) = 1,100
+ 100 (Social) = 1,200
✔
Yes, it’s correct.
Final Answer:
1200
