Edvaya · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is Aparna is effective but Priyanka is efficient.. **Aparna is effective but Priyanka is efficient.**

**Effectiveness** = achieving the goal (producing 10 dresses in 5 days).
**Efficiency** = achieving the goal at minimum cost (at or below ₹ 1,000/dress).

- **Aparna**: Produced 10 dresses ✓ (goal met → **effective**) but at ₹ 1,100/dress, above the ₹ 1,000 target (not efficient).
- **Priyanka**: Produced only 8 dresses ✗ (goal NOT met → not effective) but at ₹ 900/dress, below the ₹ 1,000 target → **efficient**.
