    Option (b) is correct.

    Explanation:

    Inflation rate refers to the rate at which the prices of goods and services are increased.

    Inflation rate:

    = Percentage Change in Consumer Price Index

    = (100 - 110) : 110

    = - 10 : 110

    = - 0.0909, or - 9.09%

    So, this is a Deflation of 9.09% (9.1%), and a deflation means that value of money has increased.
