Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Without the figure, we can deduce the correct answer based on the principle of comparative advantage and gains from trade. If both countries are producing pears, the gains from trade would typically involve them trading some of their pears for apples, which they aren't producing. However, without specific details on production capabilities or trade ratios, it's impossible to accurately calculate the exact gains from trade in terms of apples and pears. The choice "20 apples and 0 pears" suggests a gain in a different product (apples) without losing pears, which aligns with the concept of trade benefits but cannot be precisely confirmed without more information.
