Answer:

Sue's opportunity cost of changing oil is <u>more</u> than Fred's and her opportunity cost for changing tires is <u>less</u> than Fred's.

Explanation:

Opportunity Cost is the value of next best alternative sacrifised while choosing an alternative. Eg : If I can read English or Science & opportunity cost of reading it is reading Science.

               Oil         Tires          Sacrifise Ratio  (Oil:Tires)  

Sue       20           20             20:20 = 1:1

Fred       20            10             20:10 = 2:1 or 1:0.5

Sue can change oil by sacrifising 1 unit tire, Fred can change oil by sacrifising 0.5 unit of tire. So, Sue's opportunity cost of changing oil is more than Fred's .

Fred can change tire by sacrifising 2 units of oil, Sue can change tire by sacrifising 1 unit of oil. So, Sue's opportunity cost of changing tires is less than Fred's.
