About this exercise
Count how many reps fall into each attainment band and write exactly 6 lines in plain text: Below 50%:, 50-79%:, 80-99%:, 100-119%:, 120% and above: each followed by the count, then a last line starting "At or above 100%:" giving the count of 20 and the whole-number percent, like "At or above 100%: 5 of 20 (25%)". Use the boundaries exactly: 79 is in 50-79 and 100 is in 100-119.
Common mistakes when you ask AI for this
- Mishandling boundaries. The AI puts 79 in 80-99 or 100 in 80-99. Try: Add: "79 is in 50-79 and 100 is in 100-119."
- Miscounting. The AI counts by eye and gets a band wrong. Try: Add: "List the numbers in each band before counting."
- Repeating the claim. The AI agrees with the manager. Try: Add: "Check against the data; report the real share."
- Extra text. The AI adds charts and commentary. Try: Add: "Exactly 6 lines, plain text."
