If 90% efficiency is expected, then the actual amount of time that should be documented is 7.2 hours (i.e. 8 hours x 0.9 = 7.2 hours). Therefore, the correct answer is C. A is incorrect because it suggests the worker should document more time than they actually worked. B is incorrect because it exceeds 100% and is therefore not a valid option. D is incorrect because it suggests the worker should only document their activities for 0.8 hours, which is less than their entire 8 hour shift.
