Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Human Development Index (HDI) measures a country's development based on three factors: a decent standard of living (measured by gross national income per capita), access to knowledge (measured by years of education) and a long and healthy life (measured by life expectancy at birth). Therefore, option A is the best choice as it includes all three of these factors. Options B, C, D and E do not accurately reflect the three factors measured by the HDI.
