  1. Open the presentation. Save it to the Rowan folder on your desktop as LastName_SalesInformation.pptx, replacing “LastName” with your own last name. (Example: Hywater_SalesInformation) It is a good idea to save your work periodically.

  2. Edit the first slide to say “Annual Sales Data” under the Title “Rowan Retail”
    A Microsoft Powerpoint deck is open with 3 slides created. It is open to the first slide in the deck and there is a text box where "Annual Sales Data" has been typed.

  3. Move the current slide 3 in front of the current slide 2
    A Microsoft Powerpoint deck is open with 3 slides created. The second slide is being displayed.
  4. Add three slides to the end of the presentation. The layout of these slides does not matter.
    A Microsoft Powerpoint deck is open with 3 slides created. Three new slides have been inserted making it a 6 slide deck now.
