What action would likely constitute a breach of contract?

  1. Fulfilling all obligations stated

  2. Making verbal agreements

  3. Failing to meet the terms outlined in the contract

  4. Modifying the contract legally

The correct answer is: Failing to meet the terms outlined in the contract

Failing to meet the terms outlined in the contract constitutes a breach of contract because it directly undermines the agreement made between the parties involved. A contract defines specific obligations that each party is responsible for, creating expectations that must be followed to maintain the integrity of the agreement. When one party does not fulfill their commitments, it affects the other party's rights and can lead to legal consequences. Other options involve actions that either do not lead to a breach or require further context. Fulfilling all obligations is clearly the opposite of breaching a contract. Making verbal agreements may complicate matters but doesn't automatically breach a written contract, as they may not be enforceable. Modifying the contract legally, given that both parties agree to the changes, is also not a breach, as it represents an adaptation of the original terms.
