    Solution

    This option captures the essence of the "precarious situation" caused by the "economic downturn" and "rising inflation." Option 1 is too informal ("dangerous place") and inaccurate vocabulary “high prices” in place of “rising inflation” has been used. Option 2 is incorrect as there could be other factors in the economy that can affect businesses. Option 4 suggests a solution not present in the question statement. Option 5 simplifies the cause-and-effect relationship, focusing only on inflation.
