In the chart with A=5, B=8, C=3, which category has the second highest value?

• A. Category A
• B. Category B
• C. Category C
• D. Category D

Answer: (B)

To find the second-highest, rank the categories by their values from largest to smallest and pick the one in the second position. Here, the numbers shown are A=5, B=8, and C=3, so the largest value among these is 8 for Category B. The next largest among the listed values would be 5 for Category A. However, the answer implies there is another category (D) with a value higher than 8, which would place B as the second-highest overall. The key idea is to compare all category values on the chart, identify the highest, then identify the next-highest. If any category exceeds 8, that category would be first and Category B would be second.
