Fraudulent misrepresentation can result in both rescission (cancellation) of the contract and damages (compensation for any losses suffered as a result of the misrepresentation). Therefore, the best choice is A, which includes both remedies as options. The other choices are not accurate, as they do not take into account the full scope of options available for a fraudulent misrepresentation case.
