A Correct answer
Explanation

Reaming is a finishing operation performed after drilling to achieve accurate hole size and smooth surface finish. Drilling alone produces holes with tolerances of about IT12-IT13, while reaming can achieve IT7-IT9 precision. Slotting creates grooves, facing produces flat surfaces, and neither refines hole diameter like reaming does.
