    Option (C) is correct.

    Explanation:

    Nominal GDP:

    = (No. of burgers sold * Selling price of each) + (No. of fries sold * Selling price of each)

    = (4000 * 3) + (6000 * 1.5)

    = 12,000 + 9,000

    = $21,000

    Real GDP (in 2008 prices)

    = (No. of burgers sold * Selling price of each) + (No. of fries sold * Selling price of each)

    = (4,000 * $2.50) + (6000 * $2)

    = 10,000 + 12,000

    = $22,000

    GDP deflator:

    = (Nominal GDP : Real GDP) * 100

    = (21000 : 22000) * 100

    = 95.45
