Answer:

by Syncretizing their beliefs

Step-by-step explanation:

It is important to note that Roman Catholicism is the predominantly practiced religion in Brazil.

However, these African Slaves were able to continue practicing their native religions in Brazil by blending (syncretizing) their own native traditions and beliefs with the beliefs of the catholic church.
