Which alignment is assigned to most values by default?

The correct answer is Option (3) → Left

Note: For this question, Option (1) could also be a possible answer, as explained below.

The question is the book’s exercise MCQ 11 word for word, and the book’s answer key gives (b) Left: by default, Excel places entries to the left of the cell unless they are numbers or dates.

Option (1) Right — Should also be correct. If “values” is read as numbers, the book’s text says whole and decimal values are aligned to the right side of the cell.

Option (2) Centre — Incorrect. Centre alignment has to be chosen by the user.

Option (3) Left — Correct. This is the answer in the book’s key; labels (text) are aligned to the left.

Option (4) Decimal — Incorrect. There is no default ‘decimal’ alignment.
