  3. Substitute the given values into the formula.

    GDP Deflator=295.36173.82×100\text{GDP Deflator} = \frac{295.36}{173.82} \times 100
  4. Calculate the value.

    GDP Deflator=1.699229×100\text{GDP Deflator} = 1.699229 \times 100 GDP Deflator≈169.92\text{GDP Deflator} \approx 169.92
  5. Compare the calculated value with the given options.

    The calculated value of 169.92 matches option C.
