Question:

How does money solve the problem of double coincidence of wants? Explain with an example of your own.

Answer:

Money exchange system is better system than barter system. The problem of double coincidence of wants is the most difficult problem of barter. If the things related to the necessity of two persons are not found, then exchange is impossible.

This problem can be solved immediately by using currency.
