Solution

The three basic problems of an economy are:

  1. What to produce? (deciding which goods and in what quantities to produce)
  2. How to produce? (choosing the production technique)
  3. For whom to produce? (deciding the distribution of the goods produced)

These problems arise because resources are limited and have alternative uses, while human wants are unlimited.
