Which factors should generally be considered when setting priorities?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: The task’s importance and deadline
When setting priorities, a person should first examine how important each task is and when it is due. A task that is both important and urgent usually deserves earlier attention than a minor task with a flexible deadline. Other practical factors may sometimes matter, but the colour of a list or the size of a chair does not determine priority. Therefore, option A identifies the most relevant factors.
