Answer:

a. 65 in 1972 and 156 today

Explanation:

The relationship between CPI should be the same as the prices:

price today / price 1972 = CPI today / CPI 1972

          6      /       2.50      = 2.4

Now we divide the given CPI and look for the correct answer:

<em>a) 156/65 = 2.4</em>

b) 145.8 / 90 = 1.62

c) 160/75 = 2.1333333

d) 150/60 = 2.5

the first option matches the relationship between prices thus, is the correct one.

Therefore, the answer is false.
