Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
Fraudulent misrepresentation occurs when one party knowingly makes a false statement of material fact, intending the other party to rely on it, and the other party does rely on it to their detriment. Since Fess knowingly misrepresented material features about the facility and the business, Gwyn can most likely rescind the contract on the basis of fraudulent misrepresentation.
