Answer 1

The statement that is true about the experiences of the urban working class during the Industrial Revolution is:

Men, women, and children all needed to work to earn money that families needed for rent, food, and clothing.

During the Industrial Revolution, many families, especially those in the urban working class, required every member—including men, women, and children—to contribute to the household income due to low wages and high living costs. The other statements inaccurately reflect the conditions and experiences of that time.
