ANSI stands for which organization?

• A. American National Standards Institute
• B. American National Standards Institute, INC.
• C. American Institute of Standardization
• D. American National Standards Institute Incorporated

Answer: (B)

The main idea is knowing the exact official name of ANSI. It stands for American National Standards Institute, a private nonprofit organization that coordinates the development of voluntary standards in the United States. The word “Incorporated” or the suffix INC. isn’t part of its formal title, so adding it would misstate the organization. The other options change the terminology or add a corporate suffix, which isn’t how ANSI is officially named. So the exact expansion to memorize is American National Standards Institute.
