The critical ratio (CR) is calculated by dividing the time remaining until a job’s deadline by the time required to complete the job. A critical ratio less than 1 indicates that the job is already late, while a ratio greater than 1 indicates that the job can still be completed before the deadline. Therefore, choice C (less than 1) implies that a job is already late.
