The given line graph shows the record of the number of tickets sold at the theatre counter on the first days of a show. On how many days was the number of tickets sold less than that sold on the previous day?

- A3
- B1
- C2
- D4
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Let's list the number of tickets sold on each day from Day to Day :
* Day 1:
* Day 2: (Increased from Day )
* Day 3: (Increased from Day )
* Day 4: (Decreased from Day , since ) -> Count = 1
* Day 5: (Increased from Day )
* Day 6: (Decreased from Day , since ) -> Count = 2
Thus, there are exactly days (Day and Day ) on which the sales dropped compared to the previous day.
* Day 1:
* Day 2: (Increased from Day )
* Day 3: (Increased from Day )
* Day 4: (Decreased from Day , since ) -> Count = 1
* Day 5: (Increased from Day )
* Day 6: (Decreased from Day , since ) -> Count = 2
Thus, there are exactly days (Day and Day ) on which the sales dropped compared to the previous day.
