rewatch

Explanation:

To determine the Continental Army's main challenge, we analyze each option:

• Option a: The British had a stronger military, but the Continental Army's main issue wasn't being overwhelmed by force directly as their own struggles were more about resources.
• Option b: During the American Revolution, the Continental Army faced severe shortages of money (funding) to pay soldiers, buy weapons, and get food/supplies. This was a core challenge.
• Option c: The Army had strong leadership (e.g., George Washington), so lack of leadership isn't accurate.
• Option d: Internal conflicts were not the primary challenge; the main issues were external (British) and resource - related.

Answer:

b) Limited funding and supplies
