Step-by-step explanation:

The Eisenhower Matrix is famous principle drafted and conceptualize by the 34th President of the United States, Dwight D. Eisenhower. His theory is world famous and helps in prioritization of different tasks to be done.

The Eisenhower Matrix is also known as Urgent-Important Matrix. This matrix helps you to segregate things and prioritize different tasks to be performed based on urgency and importance, or can be scheduled later.

The Eisenhower Matrix has four quadrants. They are :

1. Quadrant I : tasks are IMPORTANT and URGENT.

2. Quadrant II : tasks are IMPORTANT and NOT URGENT.

3. Quadrant III : tasks are UNIMPORTANT and URGENT.

4. Quadrant IV : tasks are UNIMPORTANT and NOT URGENT.

If i decides to watch my brother-in-law's children when his wife is out of town, instead of finishing my office project, I will fall in the quadrant III.

Because this task of looking after my brother-in-law's children is not as important as completing my project work but is urgent at that point of time.

Thus the answer is quadrant III.
