The popular phrase is "good enough."
Remember to use "well" with verbs (as an adverb) and "good" with nouns (as an adjective.)
For example, "She skates well."
And "That was a really good soccer game."
In the test question, the speaker is referring to the amount of work completed (which is a noun) so "good enough" is the right choice.

Dear Linda,

I interpreted this test otherwise. I mutched up "good" with"enough". So I think this is a set expression and its synonyms:fair-enough,super, stunning, right etc.
Don't you think Iam right or not?

Kati
