Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since profits were the main cause of starting a trade, it has been suggested, a decline of profits must have brought about abolition because: The slave trade ceased to be profitable. Plantations ceased to be profitable. The slave trade was overtaken by a more profitable use of ships.
