When did Katharine's father pass away and how much money did he leave his daughters?

• A. Died in 1885 and left his three daughters 15.5 million dollars.
• B. Died in 1890 and left 5 million.
• C. Died in 1875 and left 20 million.
• D. Died in 1885 and left his two daughters 10 million.

Answer: (A)

This question tests your ability to recall exact facts from the text about Katharine’s family. The correct details are that her father died in 1885 and left his three daughters 15.5 million dollars. Those two specifics—the year and the amount (and the fact there were three daughters)—match the information given in the passage. Other options change one or more details (a different year, a different sum, or a different number of daughters), which would not align with what the passage states.
