would be applied. One of your team member wants to know that what is a residual risk. What will
you reply to your team member?

Explanation:
Residual risks are generally smaller risks that remain in the project after larger risks
have been addressed. The residual risk is the risk or danger of an action or an event, a method or

measures would be applied. The formula to calculate residual risk is (inherent risk) x (control risk)
