Answer:

B. 4 and 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the difference (subtract)

Week 1 and 2:

Week 1: 8

Week 2: 11

11-8=3

Week 4 and 5

Week 4: 14

Week 5: 20

20-14=6

Week 5 and 6

Week 5: 20

Week 6: 24

24-20=4

Week 8 and 9

Week 8: 22

Week 9: 18

22-19=4

So, the greatest increase occurred in week 4 and 5, as there was an increase of 6
