Explanation

NOTE: The marked answer is questionable. Standard PMBOK guidance for large projects recommends using a range of techniques including plan-driven, adaptive, or hybrid approaches (Answer A), which is the more widely accepted best practice.

Answer A reflects the PMBOK 7th edition's emphasis on tailoring and using the right approach for each situation. Verify against your specific study guide, as exam questions in this area vary by edition.
