Answer:

1. The first way and the main way is by raising taxes, it is the main way congress raised money for the Revolution.

2. When more money is printed it isn't worth as much.

Step-by-step explanation:

2. So for example if there was a country with only 10 printed bills, those bills would be sought after and would be able to buy almost anything. But if that country then decided to print out millions more bills then they would be more common and as a result, would not be wanted as much.
