    1 suit

    Explanation:

    Danielle's consumption possibilities frontier is 6 pairs of new shoes or 3 suits.

    Her opportunity cost of consuming one extra pair of shoes instead of one suit = $50 / $100 = 0.5 suit or half a suit Her opportunity cost of consuming one suit instead of a pair of shoes = $100 / $50 = 2 pairs of shoes

    If we want to calculate the opportunity cost of consuming 2 more pairs of shoes = 0.5 suit x 2 = 1 suit
