Answer:

$600

Explanation:

Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year

Nominal GDP is GDP calculated using current year prices while Real GDP is GDP calculated using base year prices. Real GDP has been adjusted for inflation.

Price index measures how prices change over a period of time. It is a measure of inflation

Real GDP = (nominal / price index) x 100

($900 / 150) X 100 = $600
