Answer:

D, to provide a place for the free practice of religion

Step-by-step explanation:

The main purpose of both colonies was to provide their settlers with a place for free practice of their religion, the Massachusetts bay colony was a puritan exclusively colony that aimed to create a colony where they lived like the first christians, and the colony of Rhode Island gave religious freedom to all of their inhabitants.
