A) The size of the audience
B) The scope of the presentation
C) The subject of the presentation
D) The purpose of the presentation
E) The venue for the presentation


Answer: B
Explanation: B) The size of your audience, the venue (in person or online), your subject, your purpose, your budget, and the time available for preparation all influence the style of your presentation. If you're speaking to a small group, particularly people you already know, you can use a casual style that encourages audience participation. A small conference room, with your audience seated around a table, may be appropriate.
