Answer : A

The switches that the associate should toggle to only show the Record Count are Row Counts and Grand Total. Row Counts is a switch that shows the number of rows in the report, which is the same as the number of records. Grand Total is a switch that shows the sum, average, minimum, maximum, or other aggregate functions of a numeric field in the report.
