Answer:

The correctt answer that fills the gap is Double.

Explanation:

GDP per capita, income per capita or income per capita is an economic indicator that measures the relationship between the level of income of a country and its population. For this, the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of said territory is divided by the number of inhabitants.

The use of per capita income as an indicator of wealth or economic stability of a territory makes sense because through its calculation, national income is interrelated (through GDP in a specific period) and the inhabitants of this place.

The objective of GDP per capita is to obtain data that shows in some way the level of wealth or welfare of that territory at a given time. It is often used as a measure of comparison between different countries, to show differences in economic conditions.
