    Answer: B - reduce budget allocations to interstate highway maintenance

    Explanation: when there's an inflationary gap in the economy, there's a partisitent rise in the general price level. To close the gap with fiscal policy, the government would aim to reduce money supply.

    It's only reducing budget allocations to interstate highway maintenance that reduces money supply and therefore closes the inflationary gap.
