Expert Solution

The prime difference between microeconomics and macroeconomics is that microeconomics deals with lower level of entity like for a firm or an individual

But if we talk about macroeconomics then it tells about the broader concept or for the whole economy

Example of market microeconomics can be study of law of demand, law of supply, market of alcohol etc

Macroeconomics helps in studying like unemployment rate, budget deficit etc
