What follows after selecting a solution?

• A. Implementing the Solution
• B. Define the Problem
• C. Evaluate the Outcome
• D. Determine the Root Cause(s)

Answer: (A)

Implementing the chosen solution is the next action in the problem-solving flow. After deciding which solution to pursue, you put the plan into motion—allocating resources, assigning tasks, and carrying out the steps needed to make the change. This stage turns decision into action and moves you toward addressing the issue in the real world. After this, you typically monitor results to see if the solution works as intended and make adjustments if needed. The other steps are part of earlier or later phases: defining the problem and identifying root causes come before selecting a solution, while evaluating outcomes happens after implementation to judge effectiveness.
