In an online group project, Riya says, “The report must be submitted by Friday at 3 p.m.” Aman replies, “I will upload it on Saturday morning.” What should Riya do first to prevent a communication error?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Ask Aman to repeat the agreed deadline and clarify that it is Friday at 3 p.m.
Aman’s reply clearly indicates that he has misunderstood the deadline. Riya should address the problem immediately, restate that the deadline is Friday at 3 p.m., and ask Aman to repeat or confirm it. This feedback checks understanding before the work is delayed. Ignoring him or waiting until Saturday would allow the error to continue.
