Answer:

Country North has the comparative advantage in the production of tractor

Step-by-step explanation:

The principle of comparative advantage states that a country should specialize in the production of goods in which it have comparative cost advantage over other nations. i.e A country should focus on the production of the goods in which it has   a lower opportunity cost in producing  than someone else.  

The question given shows that Country North has a lower opportunity cost (which is 21 watches) if it produces 3 tractors compared to country south which has an opportunity cost of  100 watches when it produces 5 tractors.

Hence, we can say that country North has a comparative advantage in the production of Tractors over country south because its opportunity cost when its produces tractors   is lower than that of the country south

Patsy found a top on the clearance rack marked 60% off the original price. If the original price is $48, how much will Patsy sav
Arlecino [84]
If the top is $48 and it is 60% off you will multiply the cost by the decimal form of the sale percentage: 48*0.60= $28.80. This is the amount she will save and I think is the answer you are looking for.

If there is a follow up question asking for the final cost of the top you would find that by subtracting the amount saved from the original cost: 48.00-28.80=$19.20.
