Question

what is the most common reason why countries create trade agreements?
○ to limit imports
○ to create free trade
○ to establish quotas
○ to decrease trade

Explanation:

Trade agreements are typically made to promote trade by reducing barriers. Limiting imports (first option) and establishing quotas (third option) are trade restrictions, not the main goal of trade agreements. Decreasing trade (fourth option) is contrary to the purpose of trade agreements. Creating free trade (removing trade barriers like tariffs, quotas) is a common objective of trade agreements to boost economic cooperation and trade between countries.

Answer:

B. to create free trade
