Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Repeating the license plate number out loud or in your head helps encode the visual information (the license plate) into auditory information, making it easier to remember until you can write it down. This process does not directly involve retrieval (which is about getting information out of memory), long-term memory (since this is about encoding and temporarily maintaining information), or eidetic memory (which refers to the ability to recall images, sounds, or objects in memory with high precision).
