Ah, the almighty DPMO. Reminds me of the time I tried to calculate the DPJO (Defects Per Jelly Omelette). Not a pretty sight.

Hmm, I was hoping for something a little more creative, like 'Disasters Per Minute Observed'. But I guess 'Defects per million opportunities' gets the job done.

C) Defects per million opportunities - that's gotta be the right answer. Sounds like something straight out of a Six Sigma playbook.

Defects per million opportunities? That's a mouthful, but I guess it makes sense when you're trying to track the quality of a wide range of processes.

I think it's C too, because it makes sense to measure defects in relation to the total opportunities for defects to occur.
