Source 1 (Company Policy Document): 'All employees must receive a minimum of 15 hours of professional development training annually.' Source 2 (Training Report - Last Year): | Department | Number of Employees | Total Training Hours | |---|---|---| | Sales | 50 | 700 | | Marketing | 30 | 420 | | R&D | 20 | 280 | Based on the provided information, which department *most clearly* adhered to the company's annual training policy last year?
✓ Correct Answer: Option D
Calculate average training hours per employee: Sales (700/50 = 14 hours), Marketing (420/30 = 14 hours), R&D (280/20 = 14 hours). Since all departments averaged 14 hours, none met the 15-hour minimum.
