Show Answer
Correct Answer: A,C

Epics are decomposed into smaller User Stories because they are too large to be completed within a single Sprint. By breaking down Epics into more manageable pieces, teams can ensure that the work can be completed within the short time frame of a Sprint, allowing for better progress tracking and more achievable goals.
