Question

which individual is acting most like a consumer?
○ a person whose job is selling goods at a market
○ a person who hires a mechanic to fix their car
○ a person eats a meal from vegetables grown in their garden
○ a person sells their old television to a friend

Explanation:

A consumer is someone who purchases or pays for goods/services to satisfy a need.

• The first option describes a seller, not a consumer.
• The second option: hiring a mechanic means paying for a service, which fits the consumer role.
• The third option uses self-grown food, no purchase involved.
• The fourth option is a seller of a used item, not a consumer.

Answer:

a person who hires a mechanic to fix their car
