what did the sharecroppers provide (give) landowners and what did they get in return for farming someone elses land?
sharecroppers would pay a monthly rent or lease payment to farm someone elses land.
sharecroppers provided the landowners with farm animals like mules.
since sharecroppers would use their own farm animals and tools to farm they would get the larger share or portion of the harvest
sharecroppers provided landowners with labor and in return share croppers would get a small share or portion of the harvest.

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• First option: Sharecropping isn't about monthly rent; that's tenant farming, so incorrect.
• Second option: Landowners typically provided animals/tools, not sharecroppers, so incorrect.
• Third option: Sharecroppers using their own resources would get a larger share? No, usually landowners (providing land) got larger, so incorrect.
• Fourth option: Sharecroppers provided labor. In return, they received a small portion of the harvest (landowners got the larger share), which matches sharecropping system.

Answer:

Sharecroppers provided landowners with labor and in return share croppers would get a small share or portion of the harvest.
