Answer:

$3,625

Explanation:

Missing word "She has a long-term capital gain of $..................."

 

Long term capital gain = Sale price of option - Buying price of option

Long term capital gain = $18,125 - $14,500

Long term capital gain = $3,625

So, the amount and character of Olivia's long-term capital gain is $3,625.
