Which combination best addresses the digital divide?

• A. All of the above
• B. Affordable connectivity
• C. Device access
• D. Public training programs

Answer: (A)

Addressing the digital divide requires a comprehensive approach that tackles cost, hardware, and capability at once. Affordable connectivity lowers the barrier of ongoing service costs so more people can stay online. Device access ensures that once connected, people actually have a device they can use. Public training programs build the skills needed to navigate the online world, use services, and understand digital safety. When these elements are combined, more individuals can connect, participate, and benefit, because each piece supports and reinforces the others. If you only focus on one area—say connectivity without a device or training—the gap persists for those who still can't access or use the internet effectively. Hence the best choice is the combination that includes all these components.
