Why should you consider the audience when preparing data for a presentation? describe the differences in the way you might present numeric data to a group of children compared to a group of financial advisers.

Children generally have a shorter attention span, and the presentation may have to be more colorful or animated to hold their attention. The data represented must also be simplified to allow them to understand it. On the other hand, financial advisors most likely should know what the numbers mean, and are used to seeing this day-to-day, so the presentation would focus on being informative, highlighting unusual results or analysis that represent problems to be solved.
