Preston has to make four phone calls to clients today. the call to mr. miller will take about an hour to complete, the call to ms. winnecuit will take about five minutes to complete, the call to mr. drudge will take about thirty minutes and the call to mrs. freich will take about fifteen minutes to complete. if all the calls are equally important, who should preston call first? a. mr. miller (1 hour) b. ms. winnecuit (5 minutes) c. mr. drudge (30 minutes) d. mrs. french (15 minutes)

The correct answer is "B".

Regarding commercial practices, it is always more important to keep the focus on the more important calls, as they could represent more economic benefits to the company. However, if all of the calls are equally important, the second factor that has to be taken into account is the expected length which the calls to clients could take. It is better to increase the probability that the majority of the issues with clients are attended by attending the ones that will take less time first.

the progressive era is a period of widespread social activism and political reform across the united states that spanned from the 1890s to the 1920s.[1] the main objectives of the progressive movement were eliminating problems caused by industrialization, urbanization, immigration, and political corruption.

the movement primarily targeted political machines and their bosses. by taking down these corrupt representatives in office, a further means of direct democracy would be established. they also sought regulation of monopolies (trust busting) and corporations through antitrust laws, which were seen as a way to promote equal competition for the advantage of legitimate competitors.

many progressives supported prohibition of alcoholic beverages, ostensibly to destroy the political power of local bosses based in saloons, but others out of a religious motivation. at the same time, women's suffrage was promoted to bring a "purer" female vote into the arena.a third theme was building an efficiency movement in every sector that could identify old ways that needed modernizing, and bring to bear scientific, medical and engineering solutions; a key part of the efficiency movement was scientific management, or "taylorism".
