The two correct statements about elliptical galaxies are:

1. They are the most common galaxy type.
2. They typically contain very little gas and dust.

To arrive at these answers, you can use your knowledge or conduct a quick search on the topic.

1. To determine if elliptical galaxies are the most common type, you can either recall that elliptical galaxies are indeed the most abundant type, or search for information on the distribution of galaxy types in the universe. Either way, you will find that elliptical galaxies are indeed the most common.

2. To determine if elliptical galaxies typically contain very little gas and dust, you can either recall that elliptical galaxies are composed mostly of stars and have lower levels of interstellar matter, or again, search for information on the composition of elliptical galaxies. This research will confirm that elliptical galaxies do indeed contain very little gas and dust compared to other types of galaxies.

By following these steps, you can confidently select the statements that are correct.
