Answer is given below:
Explanation:
Because of her department was increasingly short-staffed, the scope of her work began to encroach upon the limits of her already strained bandwidth.
The word encroach is an intransitive verb which means to enter by gradual steps or by stealth into the possessions or rights of another. It may also mean to advance beyond the usual or proper limits.
Strained is an adjective which means forced , tensed or not natural or spontaneous .
In this context it would mean a tensed bandwidth.
