Answer: The correct answer is : 1; 0

Explanation: The Gini coefficient measures the degree of inequality in an income distribution. The Gini coefficient must fall when the amount of income in an economy increases. Gini Coefficient of zero means that everyone has the same income, while a Coefficient of 1 represents a single individual receiving all the income.
