Which command decreases the indent for the selected paragraph by one level?

• A. Align Left
• B. Decrease Indent
• C. Justify text
• D. Increase Indent

Answer: (B)

The key idea is controlling how far a paragraph sits from the left edge of the page. Decrease Indent reduces that distance by one level, pulling the selected paragraph toward the left margin. This is what you use when you want to outdent a line or move a list item to a higher level in a nested list. Align Left changes how text sits relative to the left edge but doesn’t change the paragraph’s indentation. Justify text adjusts spacing so both left and right edges align, yet the left indent stays the same. Increase Indent does the opposite of what’s asked by pushing the text further right, increasing the left margin space.
