Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Life for yeoman farmers was that they did labor along slaves they owned, meaning most likely they didnt own many slaves. Poor whites in the south did NOT own any slaves. The majority of white in the south owned no slaves and were very poor, only the top percent of white men were rich with hundereds of slaves.
