The memorandum applies to which interrogative term?

• A. How
• B. Why
• C. What
• D. Where

Answer: (A)

In this kind of writing, the focus is on describing the manner or method—how something was done, the steps taken, or the procedure followed. A memorandum is typically used to convey the approach, sequence, and technique used in carrying out a task or investigation. That makes the interrogative term that fits best: how. The other interrogatives cover who (people involved), what (the incident or object), when (time), where (location), or why (motive), which are not the central focus when explaining the method or process in a memo.
