a brazil, bolivia, peru
b indonesia, malaysia, thailand
c mexico, colombia, ecuador
d egypt, libya, saudi arabia
e ethiopia, somalia, south sudan

Explanation:

To determine the best candidates for funding, we analyze the adult literacy rate map. Countries with lower literacy rates (shown by lighter or specific color codes for lower percentages) need more support for elementary education. Ethiopia, Somalia, and South Sudan are known to have relatively low adult literacy rates compared to the other options. For example, the other groups (A - D) include countries with higher literacy rates (e.g., Brazil, Malaysia, Mexico, Egypt - Libya - Saudi Arabia have higher rates than the E group). So the E group has countries with the greatest need for literacy - focused education funding.

Answer:

E. Ethiopia, Somalia, South Sudan
