The correct answer is letter A

Utilitarianism is an ethical doctrine first proposed by Jeremy Bentham (1748-1832) and John Stuart Mill (1806-1873). Such doctrine is based on the principle of utility, which determines that ethics must always be based on practical contexts, as the moral agent must analyze the situation before acting, and its action must aim to provide the greatest amount of pleasure ( well-being) to as many people as possible so that it is morally correct. In this way, utilitarianism completely discards the Kantian categorical imperative, removing all moral correction from a universal reason and offering it to the subject.
