With less children in the factories and more limited hours, the factories got less production done and had to raise the price of their goods. This could make basic foods such as bread unaffordable for some.

Writing: Always make sure that you have a good thesis. Also, you should make sure that you do not use contractions like won't, could've and I'll. The reason for this is it makes the essay look more informal. It is less formal due to contractions being a shortening of a word, making the essay seem lazier. One important writing technique that is usually mistaken is people do not write out numbers. If the number is a round number like ten thousand or is a small number like seventy-four then it should be written out. Avoid using words like "I" because the paper should not be putting themselves into an informative article, as that makes the article opinionated. On that note, you should also not be giving opinions in an informational essay, although your opinion may be informed, giving straight facts removes bias from the essay. One very common mistake in writing is using present tense. The essay should refer to historical events in the past tense as they already happened and putting it in the present tense could make the reader believe that you are speaking of a current event even though it is not.

Content: The paper should always be in proper format: regular white paper, basic fonts such as Times New Roman or Calibri that are easy to read, formal looking and shows that you did not try to cheat your way to a bigger essay with a font that takes up more space. Also, the size of the text should be around a twelve, as any less will be tough for some to read and any bigger is just using up more space on the paper. Although it is not necessary, double spacing an essay is always useful. It allows the person to read the paper more easily and allows them to fit corrections into the essay. If the essay is not going to be corrected, double spacing is not needed, but it still does not hurt. Black ink should be used in the essay becuase other colors may be tougher for some people to read and this can get aggrivating. Also, altering the color of the text will once again make you look more unproffessional. While trying to get your point across, it is important to look proffessional in order to appear more reliable and in turn have a more powerful impact on the reader.
