Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Bob's decision requires the most precise measurement because the qualifications for becoming a lifeguard involve specific physical abilities and skills that need to be measured accurately. Ray's decision to hire a secretary may involve factors such as qualifications, experience, and personality, but these are more subjective and may not require as precise of a measurement as determining someone's ability to be a lifeguard.
