Explanation:

Question 7

To determine why Leonidas ordered most Greek soldiers to withdraw, we analyze the options. Historical context (Battle of Thermopylae) shows Leonidas realized the battle was lost, so he sent most soldiers away to save them while a small group stayed. The other options (reinforcements, soldiers wanting retreat, storm) don't align with historical facts or the context.

In the Battle of Thermopylae, Leonidas and around 300 Spartans (along with some other Greek allies) stayed behind to delay the Persian army. This is a well - known historical fact, so the correct number of Spartans who stayed behind is 300.

Answer:

B. He knew the battle was lost (assuming the option with the radio button is labeled as such; from the image, the selected - looking option is "He knew the battle was lost")
