You add two fields to your Tableau view, "Profit" and "Average Profit." When you add Profit to the view, you see a pill with the label, "SUM(Profit)" but when you add Average Profit to the view, you see a pill with the label, "AGG(Average Profit)." Why does one field have SUM and another AGG? a. Each field has default properties, including default aggregation. Profit had SUM set as its default aggregation, while Average Profit had AGG set as its default. b. AGG is applied by default to discrete fields, while SUM is applied to continuous fields. Average Profit was set to discrete, while Profit was set to continuous. c. AGG is applied by default to dimensions, while SUM is applied to measures. Average Profit is a dimension, while Profit is a measure. d. AGG indicates that the "Average Profit" already includes some type of aggregation. "Profit" does not include aggregation, so an aggregate function is applied when the field is added to the view.
