Which of the following statement(s) is/are incorrect? (i) Pressing Ctrl + N in Microsoft PowerPoint adds a new slide to your presentation. (ii) Presentation can be saved as PDF in Microsoft PowerPoint 2016.
- A.Only (i) is false
- B.Only (ii) is false
- C.Both (i) and (ii) are false
- D.Neither (i) nor (ii) is false
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is A, only (i) is false. Statement (i) is wrong because Ctrl + N opens a brand new, empty presentation; the key that inserts a new slide into the open presentation is Ctrl + M. Statement (ii) is true: PowerPoint 2016 can save or export a presentation as a PDF through Save As or Export, a facility Office has carried since the 2007 version.
Option B says only (ii) is false, which reverses the position of the two statements. Option C claims both are false, but the PDF facility plainly exists in PowerPoint 2016. Option D says neither is false, which would make Ctrl + N a slide-inserting key and is exactly the confusion the paper setter is testing. Remember the pair: Ctrl + N for a new file, Ctrl + M for one more slide.
