Again enter as a percent with 2 decimals.
ANSWER :-
First of All we find Real GDP For both years:-
=> Real GDP OF 2018 : (Quantity 2018 * price 2018)
A = 1199*4.65 =5575.35
B = 302 * 3.55 = 1072.1
C = 122 *16 = 1952
*Total Real GDP of 2018 = 5563.36+1072.1+1952 = 8599.45
=> Real GDP OF 2019 : (Quantity of 2019 * price of 2018)
A = 1176*4.65= $5468.4
B = 413 *3.55 = $1466.15
C = 102 * 16 = 1632
* Total Real GDP OF 2019 = 5468.4+1466.15+1632 = $8566.85
=> GROWTH RATE OF REAL GDP = current year real gdp - base year
real gdp/base Year GDP *100
Real GDP growth Rate = 8566.85-8599.45/ 8599.45*100
= -0.38 % (Rounded)
