Difficulty: Easy
Choose an option
-
ATrue
-
BFalse
-
CUncertain (store counts unknown)

DTrue only if Kingston > Galleria by 10+ stores
-
EFalse if Four Corners equals Kingston
Answer
Correct Answer: True
Explanation
Given data
- K > G (Kingston > Galleria)
- F < G (Four Corners < Galleria)
Concept/Approach (why this method)
Transitivity on inequalities: if K > G and G > F, then K > F.
Step-by-Step deduction1) From F < G, infer G > F.2) With K > G, chain to get K > F.
Verification/Alternative
Example counts (K=120, G=100, F=80) satisfy all statements and confirm the conclusion.
Common pitfalls
- Assuming we need exact store counts; ordinal relations suffice.
Final AnswerTrue
