In which scenario is the least amount of work done on a crate?

Work is calculated as force multiplied by distance when the force acts in the direction of motion. The choices give A: 120 × 25 = 3,000 J, B: 115 × 26 = 2,990 J, C: 130 × 22 = 2,860 J, and D: 125 × 27 = 3,375 J. The smallest amount is 2,860 J, so the least work is done when a 130 N force moves the crate 22 m.
