Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

Real GDP equals (aggregate hours)  (labor productivity). Hence an increase in labor productivity increases real GDP. Real GDP per person equals (real GDP)  (population). Therefore an increase in real GDP with no change in the population increases real GDP per person. The nation's standard of living is measured by real GDP per person. So, an increase in labor productivity boosts real GDP per person and therefore boosts the nation's standard of living.
