Answer:

During the mid-1800s, many young children and women had to work long hours in factories for very little pay.

A. True

B. False

Step-by-step explanation:

This happened during the Industrial Revolution. In this period. wages for working class people were really low. For this reason, women and children went to work in factories and mines in order to help ends meet. Children from 4 years old worked under dangerous conditions in factories for long hours, and this continued to happen until laws were passed that made child labour illegal. Both women and children were often paid a lot less than men for the same kind of jobs.
