Answer:

(B) It allowed untrained workers to find work

Explanation:

The factories wanted to increase the production of household items in a massive way, which in fact made them cheaper, not more expensive (A)

Factory work did not provide workers with more free time, in fact, at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution workers covered working hours of up to 14 hours (C)

Factory work did not cause farmers to lose their jobs, in effect, farmers decided to emigrate from the countryside to the city to work in the factories (D).

In that sense, factory work allowed untrained workers to find work (B).
