    Solution

    Inflation is the general increase in the prices of goods and services in an economy over time. When inflation occurs, the purchasing power of a currency decreases, which means that the same amount of money can buy fewer goods and services than before. Inflation can be caused by a variety of factors, including an increase in demand for goods and services, a decrease in supply of goods and services, or an increase in the cost of production.
