Answer 1

Answer:

This understanding requires Chaz to use an instrument inference.

Explanation:

Instrument inference is a situation where an individual reading a text or listening to a program or speech, deduces an information that is not clearly stated within the text or speech.

Chaz being able to deduce from his grandma's statement, that she must have been listening to a radio and not a CD, is an example of instrument inference.
