Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

First, calculate the total number of laptops sold by each store across all five months.

Store A: 430 + 376 + 440 + 346 + 408 = 2000

Store B: 312 + 506 + 336 + 380 + 366 = 1900

Store C: 370 + 556 + 470 + 324 + 460 = 2180

Store D: 428 + 360 + 530 + 356 + 306 = 1980

Store E: 420 + 382 + 384 + 484 + 500 = 2170

The question asks for stores with sales more than 2000. Store A sold exactly 2000, so it does not count. Stores B and D are below 2000. Only Store C (2180) and Store E (2170) exceed 2000.

Therefore, exactly 2 stores satisfy the condition.
