Hello! And good morning! Your answer is: A. King Solomon

Explanation: Title, date and author. The book takes its name from the Greek ekklesiastes, a translation of the title by which the central figure refers to himself: Kohelet, meaning something like "one who convenes or addresses an assembly". According to rabbinic tradition, Ecclesiastes was written by Solomon in his old age.

Hope I helped!
