Answer 2

Answer:

The most appropriate meaning for the word "PRAGMATIC" is "practical".

Explanation:

The pragmatist is based on logic, on the concept that ideas and deeds are only true if they serve for the immediate solution of their problems. A person who wants to use a pragmatic approach in his plans is one that seeks to solve his problems in an agile and practical way, which is aimed at solutions rather than obstacles.
