D) The Brazilian government will have better trade relations with other countries in Latin America.

Answer 1

A) Per capita GDP is higher for citizens in Chile than in Brazil.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the literacy rates in Chile are 10 percentage points higher than the rates in Brazil, it is MOST LIKELY that per capita GDP is higher for citizens in Chile than in Brazil. The average yearly GDP for a citizen in Brazil is $10,296, while the average Chilean citizen earns $14,465 per year.

Answer 2

The only solution to this problem is to say that the per capita GDP is higher for citizens in Chile than Brazil.
It makes sense cause the higher the capita the higher the growth rate is.
