Explanation:

Option (3) is correct.
Explanation: In general, Real GDP and Welfare are directly related with each other. A higher GDP implies more production of goods and services. It means more availability of goods and services. But more goods and services may not necessarily indicate that the people were better off during the year. In other words, a higher GDP may not necessarily mean higher welfare of the people.
