Kudos for the right solution and explanation
By perusing the chart, in 2007 the average student spent close to $500 and in 2008 it was close to $300.
Apart from that, we can interpret the data by looking at the chart that in 2008 the average student spent less than 2007.
The correct answer is option B.
