Which dashboard capability helps a business manager break down data into segments to understand it...

Understanding Slice-and-Dice:

The "slice-and-dice" capability of dashboards allows users to break down large datasets into smaller, manageable segments for analysis.

This enables business managers to view data from different perspectives, such as by time period, geography, or product category.

Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

Option A (Pivot): Pivot focuses on reorganizing data but is more specific to spreadsheet functionalities.

Option B (Exploration): Exploration involves data discovery but does not inherently support segmentation.

Option C (Consolidation): Consolidation aggregates data rather than breaking it into segments.
