I would like to explain this answer with an example. Suppose that a person has a bike and does not know how to drive it. its means his functions abilities are very low. Amartiya Sen wants to tell us that we should use the commodities by knowing all the functions related to it.As Amartya Sen said, "Economic growth cannot be sensibly treated as an end in itself. Development has to be more concerned with enhancing the lives we lead and the freedom we enjoy.

and in the next question, money is really not enough. Freedom and self-esteem and equality to lead life and enjoy life and use the life in the best way is also a part of development.

Money is enough only to enhance the freedom of choice but not the development. In development, your function abilities should be increases as much as possible.
