Michael asked · 9 Jul 2013

so the correct answer is in green?

MridulDev: Indeed, and here's a little more info : Short term memory receives a proportion of the information received into sensory stores, and allows us to store information long enough to use it (hence the idea of working memory). It can store only a relatively small amount of information at one time, i.e. 5 to 9 (often referred to as 7 +/-2) items of information, for a short duration, typically 10 to 20 seconds. As the following example shows, capacity of short term memory can be enhanced by splitting information in to chunks (a group of related items). Reference Material: CAP 715

Over confident, young man most likely will deviate from standard procedure because he think what he is master of his job and definitely will do mistake intentionally or not.
