Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
The velocity of money refers to how fast money moves through the economy, or the average number of times a unit of currency is used to purchase goods and services within a specific time period. It does not directly relate to the actions of the Federal Reserve, the growth rate of the money supply, or a simple division of the money supply by nominal GDP.
