The question asks: "In which quarter did Product B contribute the least to the total sales?"

To solve this, let's analyze the stacked bar chart labeled "Quarterly Sales by Product." Each quarter (Q1 to Q4) shows sales for three products (A, B, and C), with different colors for each product:

- **Yellow**: Product C
- **Orange**: Product B
- **Red**: Product A

We are specifically looking for the quarter where Product B (the **orange** section) contributes the **least** to the total sales.

Here is the observation for each quarter:
- **Q1**: The orange section (Product B) is relatively small, around 20-25 thousand.
- **Q2**: The orange section increases but is still moderate.
- **Q3**: The orange section is larger than Q1 and Q2.
- **Q4**: The orange section is the largest compared to other quarters.

From this visual analysis, **Q1** is the quarter where Product B contributes the least to the total sales.

### Answer: Q1

Let me know if you'd like more details on this or have further questions. Here are some related questions:

1. How can we quantify the exact contribution of each product in every quarter?
2. What can be inferred from the increase in Product B’s sales from Q1 to Q4?
3. How does Product A's performance compare with Product B's across the quarters?
4. What percentage of the total sales did Product B contribute in Q1?
5. How does the contribution of Product C compare across the quarters?

**Tip**: When interpreting stacked bar charts, always focus on the relative size of each category's section within each bar for comparison.

In which quarter did Product B contribute the least to the total sales?
