Seriously, who came up with these answer choices? It's like they pulled them out of a hat. I'm just gonna go with D) 63 and hope for the best.

Hah, 144,648? That's more like a lottery jackpot than an RPN. I'm going with C) 1764 on this one.

Okay, let's see... Severity of 7, Occurrence of 9, and Detection of 4. I'm pretty sure the RPN should be 252. This test is trying to trip us up!

So, 7 x 9 x 4 equals 252.

Yeah, I agree. The formula for RPN is Severity x Occurrence x Detection.

I'm not sure about the calculation, but I think it's important to consider the cost and target date as well. Maybe the answer is C) 1764.

Wait, did they really just calculate the RPN wrong? This is like something out of a bad comedy sketch.

I agree with Deandrea, the RPN calculation makes sense. So, the answer should be B) 252.

I think the RPN should be calculated as Severity x Occurrence x Detection, so it should be 252.
