Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The process is as follows:

Select the file you want to delete.

Select delete from file menu. (You can right click on the file or press delete button on keyboard). A pop would appear which would prompt you to confirm the deletion of the file.

Confirm the deletion.

The x button at the top right would close the file and not delete it. Thus, it is incorrect option.

Answer 2

In order to delete a file, it is required to first select the file which you want to delete and then select 'delete' from the file menu. It will then ask you to confirm the deletion which will be required in order to complete the file deletion process.

It isn't required to click on the X at the top right of the screen or to open the file you want to delete as these steps aren't relevant to the deletion process.

Hence, the statements which describe the steps you need to take in order to delete a file are as follows:

- Confirm the deletion.
- Select Delete from the File menu.
- Select the file you want to delete.
