Correct Answer: The multiplicity of wants and scarcity of means


Solution : The correct answer is (c) The multiplicity of wants and scarcity of means.

The fundamental economic problem arises from the fact that human wants and needs are unlimited, while the resources and means to fulfill those wants are limited. This scarcity of resources relative to the multitude of human wants and needs leads to the fundamental economic problem. It requires societies to make decisions on how to allocate their limited resources efficiently to fulfill the most important wants and needs.
