Roughly how many years passed between the Black Death of 1348 and the Peasants' Revolt of 1381?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: B. 33 years
- Step 1: The plague arrived in 1348 and the revolt took place in 1381. Step 2. Subtract: 1381 - 1348 = 33. Answer: 33 years. Why not the others: 23 and 43 slip by ten, and 67 is double the true gap.
