Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFThe correct answer is: Option 4) Insert Column to the Left
Key Points
In Microsoft Word, when working with tables:
- "Insert Column to the Left" adds a new column to the left of the selected cell/column, pushing the existing columns to the right.
- "Insert Column to the Right" (Option 1) adds a new column to the right, shifting subsequent columns further right (but does not move the selected column).
- "Insert Table" (Option 2) is irrelevant—it creates a new table.
- "Insert Columns" (Option 3) is not a standard option; Word specifies left/right insertion.
Why Option 4?
The question asks for inserting a column while shifting existing columns to the right, which only happens when inserting to the left of a selected column.
Correct Choice: Option 4 (Insert Column to the Left)
