Which network would receive the largest budget share in a campaign where Seven's share is 37.5%, Nine's share is 45%, and STV's share is 17.5%?

• A. Seven
• B. STV
• C. All networks equal
• D. Nine

Answer: (D)

Budget shares go to the network with the biggest slice. Nine has 45%, which is larger than Seven’s 37.5% and STV’s 17.5%, so Nine would receive the largest portion of the budget. Seven would get the next largest share, and STV the smallest. The idea of equal budgets would only hold if all shares were equal, which they aren’t here.
