Which is the last step in the problem-solving process? a. gathering information b. evaluating the solution c. considering options d. weighing disadvantages

Hi!

The answer is letter B, Evaluating the solution.

Explanation:

When you are problem solving, you usually start by identifying the problem and you follow it with brain storming, Deciding on a Solution, implementing the solution, and finally evaluating the solution. This is because you first need to decide what you think will be most effective to tackle the problem and, as a last step, you have to evaluate if the solution you picked worked to solve your defined problem or if you need to start again and come up with a different solution.

the correct answer is “opportunity cost”. opportunity cost is what a company misses out because it decided in one option over another one. in this case, the company decided to invest in building a factory so it gave up another possible benefit or profit in order to achieve success with the factory.  

trade-off is not the correct answer since it is a situation in which you accept losing something in return for benefits in other areas.

and finally, consequence is a general term used to accept what it comes when you make a decision. it can be a positive or negative consequence depending if the decision you took was the correct one.  

what are the choices?
