In order to apply bold formatting to the text, which tab should you go to?

To apply bold formatting to text in PowerPoint, you would go to the Home tab. The Home tab contains essential formatting options that are commonly used when editing text, including choices for font style, size, color, alignment, and more.

Within the Home tab, there is a section dedicated to Font, where you'll find the bold option prominently displayed, usually represented by a bold 'B' icon. Clicking this icon or using the keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+B) will apply bold formatting to the selected text, making it stand out.

The other tabs, while important for various functions within PowerPoint, do not focus on the core text formatting options that are easily accessible in the Home tab. This is why the Home tab is the correct choice for applying bold formatting to your text.
