The decision based on inspection by variables is ................... reliable than by attributes.

  • A.Less
  • B.Less than
  • C.More
  • D.More than

Answer: C

Decisions based on inspection by variables are more reliable than those by attributes.

Inspection by variables measures the actual value of a characteristic, such as a diameter in millimetres, while inspection by attributes only records whether each item is good or defective. A measurement carries far more information than a pass-or-fail mark, so for the same sample size variables inspection gives a more reliable decision, or the same reliability with a smaller sample.

'Less' reverses the relationship. 'More than' and 'less than' do not fit the sentence, which already contains 'than'.
