$nums = 1, 2, 3
$result = Measure-Object -Sum $nums
$result.Sum

ASum parameter is invalid

BVariable $nums is not defined

CMeasure-Object requires input via pipeline, not as argument

DSum property does not exist

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Check how Measure-Object receives input
Measure-Object expects input objects through the pipeline, not as a direct argument.
Step 2: Identify correct usage
The correct syntax is $nums | Measure-Object -Sum. Passing $nums as a parameter causes an error.
Final Answer:
Measure-Object requires input via pipeline, not as argument -> Option C
Quick Check:
Input must be piped to Measure-Object [OK]

Quick Trick: Always pipe data into Measure-Object, don't pass as argument [OK]
