Correct answer & explanation
✓
R3
Risk R3 has both high probability and high impact, making it the highest priority risk requiring immediate response. The planned response for R3 is 'Avoid', which is appropriate for a high-high risk. In contrast, R1 and R2 have only one high dimension (e.g., high probability but low impact, or vice versa), and R4 has low probability and low impact. Therefore, R3 demands the most immediate attention.
