□ the creation of places like the hull house which provided trained workers to help immigrants and the working class.

□ the sponsoring of laws to end child labor and requirement of government to inspect places of work.

□ the promotion of suffrage for women.

Explanation:

1. The creation of places like Hull House (by Jane Addams, a woman) helped immigrants/working class.
2. Sponsoring laws to end child labor (women like Florence Kelley advocated) and workplace inspections.
3. Promotion of women's suffrage was a key Progressive contribution by women.

The push for federal reforms (more general, not specific to women's contributions) and eliminating political machines (more about political reformers generally) are less tied to women's Progressive contributions.

Answer:

• The creation of places like the Hull House which provided trained workers to help immigrants and the working class.
• The sponsoring of laws to end child labor and requirement of government to inspect places of work.
• The promotion of suffrage for women.
