Question

Gautama died around 382 B.C. at the age of 100.

Answer 1

False

Step-by-step explanation:

It is FALSE that Gautama died around 382 B.C. at the age of 100.

This is because Gautama, whose full and original name is Siddhārtha Gautama, was recorded to have been born in either 563 BCE or 480 BCE, and eventually died in the year 483 BCE or 400 BCE respectively. Thereby making him have lived for exactly 80 years before his death.

Gautama was a philosopher when he was alive. Hence, the statement is FALSE.
