Explanation:

Please see subunit 3.1.3. In Beyond Intractability see Brad Spangler's article, "Positive-Sum, Zero-Sum, and Negative-Sum Situations" to learn the definitions of positive- sum, zero-sum, and negative-sum situations. In a zero-sum situation, it is "impossible for one party to advance its position without the other party suffering a corresponding loss." In the example given in the quiz, if you gain $100, the other person will lose a corresponding $100. The win and loss add up to zero.
