The correct answer is D AND(ISPICKVAL(Effort_Level__c, ‘Rigorous’), Distance__c < 10, Time_to_Complete__c < 5) Validation will trigger when the formula validates to true! To make sure the distance is greater than 10 and time to complete more than 5 formula must check if values are less than these numbers and trigger the validation.

It's B, no? If one of the values is correct (Distance more than 10 or Time to complete > 5) the D option returns False, then the Validation Rule is not triggering. At B option when one of the 2 values is incorrect the VR returns true, so the error is triggering correctly.

C. is correct Validation rule is to check input data. The question is asking to enforce user input. So, all the conditions have to be matched.
