To find Tabasco sauce in a large grocery store, you could systematically search every shelf in every store aisle. This best illustrates problem solving by means of:
A
the availability heuristic.
B
functional fixedness.
C
an algorithm.
D
the representativeness heuristic.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -To find Tabasco sauce in a large grocery store, you could systematically search every shelf in every store aisle. This best illustrates problem solving by means of: an algorithm.

Detailed explanation-2: -Many different strategies exist for solving problems. Typical strategies include trial and error, applying algorithms, and using heuristics. To solve a large, complicated problem, it often helps to break the problem into smaller steps that can be accomplished individually, leading to an overall solution.

Detailed explanation-3: -Prototype-an example of a concept that closely matches the defining characteristics of a concept.

Detailed explanation-4: -Representativeness. A popular shortcut method in problem-solving identified in behavioral economics is called representativeness heuristics. Representativeness uses mental shortcuts to make decisions based on past events or traits that are representative of or similar to the current situation.

Detailed explanation-5: -An algorithm is a step-by-step procedure that, by following certain “rules” produces a solution. Algorithms are commonly used in mathematics to solve division or multiplication problems. But they can be used in other fields as well. One benefit of algorithms is that they guarantee an accurate answer.
