Question

describing how to add data to a workbook ginas teacher has sent her a word document that contains the names of all the students who are participating in the spelling bee. her teacher wants her to enter these names in a spreadsheet. which strategy is the best way for gina to enter these names? by typing the names one by one down a column in the excel spreadsheet by typing the first two names in a column and then using the autofill feature by typing the names in two different columns and then using the flash fill feature by copying the names from the word document and pasting them into the excel spreadsheet

Explanation:

To determine the best strategy, we analyze each option:

• Typing names one by one is inefficient.
• Autofill is for patterns (e.g., numbers, dates), not random names.
• Flash Fill is for transforming data (e.g., splitting names), not for pasting existing names.
• Copying from Word and pasting into Excel is efficient as it transfers all names at once without manual typing.

Answer:

D. by copying the names from the Word document and pasting them into the Excel spreadsheet
