d. transitional country. select the best answer from the choices provided a b c d

A low GDP per capita is already suggesting to us a developing country (not a developed country). Same with low literacy rate and high infant mortality rate - this also suggests to us a developing (or in other words- less developed country) - so the answer is b. 

less developed countries have less money to spend on education - that is one of the reasons why they have low literacy rate .
