The correct answer is B) arable land is located there.

To arrive at this answer, we can eliminate options C) the pyramids are located there, and D) important archaeological sites are there, as they do not provide a logical reason for the majority of Egyptians to live along the Nile River and Nile Delta.

To determine whether A) land is inexpensive there or B) arable land is located there, we need to consider the geographical aspects and historic significance of the Nile River and Nile Delta.

The Nile River is one of the longest rivers in the world, flowing through Egypt from south to north. It has played a crucial role in the development of Egyptian civilization. The Nile Delta, located at the mouth of the river where it empties into the Mediterranean Sea, is a fertile and agriculturally productive region.

Historically, Egyptians have relied on the Nile River for irrigation, transportation, and as a source of sustenance. The river provided fertile soil due to annual floods, making it ideal for agriculture. The Nile Delta, with its rich alluvial soil, has been the breadbasket of Egypt, supporting the growth of crops such as wheat, barley, rice, and cotton.

Therefore, the availability of arable land along the Nile River and Nile Delta is the primary reason why the majority of Egyptians live there.
