Detailed Solution & Explanation

Data can be presented in three main ways: textual (or descriptive), tabular, and diagrammatic. 1. **Textual presentation** is descriptive and narrative in nature, making comparison and extraction of exact numbers difficult. 2. **Diagrammatic presentation** (charts, graphs, etc.) is visually appealing and excellent for showing trends and distributions, but it only provides approximate representations and lacks numerical precision. 3. **Tabular presentation** (tabulation) organizes data systematically into rows and columns. It presents exact numerical values, preserves all details, and allows for precise comparisons and further statistical analysis. Therefore, tabulation is the most accurate mode of data presentation. Hence, **Option B** is the correct answer.
