Based on the typical social structure of Ancient Egypt:

  1. Which social class had the most people?

    • Farmers and Slaves: This social class constituted the majority of the population in Ancient Egypt, as agriculture was the backbone of the economy and many people worked the land or were enslaved.
  2. Knowing that education was not available to all social classes in Ancient Egypt, choose the social classes most likely to read and write:

    • Pharaoh, Government Officials, Nobles, Priests, Scribes: These groups had access to education and were responsible for reading and writing, especially the Scribes, who were specifically trained for this purpose.
