Correct Answer Miranda

Calculation:

Let us solve this question using option only.

For Sprite, If we see the data from 2002 to 2007, which are 108, 126, 135, 75, 90, 120.

Clearly it is not continuous decreasing.

For Miranda, If we see the data from 2002 to 2007, which are 144, 126, 114, 90, 75, 60.

Clearly it is continuous decreasing.

For Coke, If we see the data from 2002 to 2007, which are 102, 84, 105, 90,  75 , 45.

Clearly it is not continuous decreasing.

For Fanta, If we see the data from 2002 to 2007, which are 114, 102, 75, 150, 135, 165.

Clearly it is not continuous decreasing.

∴ Option b is the correct answer.
