Question: What is the primary focus of \'game theory\' in modern mathematics?

Options:

1. To analyze competitive situations where the outcome depends on the actions of multiple agents.
2. To develop algorithms for solving complex equations.
3. To study the properties of geometric shapes.
4. To create statistical models for data analysis.

Correct Answer: To analyze competitive situations where the outcome depends on the actions of multiple agents.

Solution:

Game theory primarily focuses on analyzing competitive situations where the outcomes depend on the strategies of multiple decision-makers.
