Brazil
Mexico
Argentina
United States

Respuesta :

Answer:

D: United States

Explanation:

Absolute advantage means (in basic terms) who can produce a product at lower costs.

Here it is shown that the United States needs far less worker hours to produce oil which means (without wages given) that it can be assumed that the United States produces it at lower costs due to the lower worker hours.
