| Nov 8, 2022 at 6:00 | comment | added | alireza | Suppose that the only data that we have is that the amount of sales in 1989 was $5000, in 1990 was $10000, in 1991 was $15000. Now suppose that we want to write a report about this data. Are both example sentences in my question legitimate and correct in this context? | |
