Explanation:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze the context. The relations between the colonies and Great Britain were peaceful for over a century. If there was "frequent" interference, relations would likely be tense. "No" interference is too absolute as Britain did have some involvement, but "infrequent" interference means Britain didn't interfere often, allowing the colonies to run their affairs with little disruption, leading to peaceful relations. "Helpful" interference doesn't fit the historical context of colonial - British relations (interference was not typically helpful in a way that maintained peace; rather, lack of frequent interference was key).

Answer:

D. infrequent
