South: (23,623/157,487) X 100 ~ 0.15 X 100 = 15%

In questions that require mentally rotating an object, it can be helpful to focus on a salient feature of the object and examine what happens to it as the object rotates. For instance, in this question, you can focus on the single desk – in the original chart, it is located at the bottom-right corner with the chair facing the upper side of the chart. Now, carefully examine what happens when the chart rotates:

• If you turn the chart 90° clockwise, the desk moves to the bottom-left corner, and the chair faces right.
• If you turn the chart another 90° clockwise, the desk moves to the top-left corner, and the chair faces down.
• If you turn the chart yet another 90° clockwise, the desk moves to the top-right corner, and the chair faces left.
  Note: The question asks you to rotate the original chart clockwise, but does not specify by how many degrees the chart should be rotated. This means it is not relevant, you can choose to rotate it either clockwise or counterclockwise.

The correct answer is (D).

Answer (D) is the correct answer because it is the only one that must be true. Since all new ads must be approved by the board, it follows that the new ads that are turning a profit were also approved by the board. Therefore, it is true that some of the ads approved by the board are turning a profit.

Answer (A) is incorrect since the question states that only some of the new ads are turning a profit, not necessarily all.

Answer (B) is incorrect since the question requires that the answer must be true. While it is possible, realistically, that some of the ads are causing losses, we cannot know that from the presented information. The sentence “some of the new ads are turning a profit” does not necessarily mean that the opposite is also true (that some of the new ads are causing losses). It may be that the other ads are breaking even, or that all of them are turning a profit (since "some" means at least one, possibly all); there is not enough information to know. Since it is impossible to know for certain, the requirement to pick a statement that must be true, beyond a doubt, is not met.

Answer (C) is incorrect since the question clearly states that some of the ads are turning a profit, meaning it cannot be true that none of them is profitable.
