The pharaoh known for building the Great Pyramid of Giza is Khufu.
The pharaoh known for building the Great Pyramid of Giza is Khufu. To arrive at this answer, you can eliminate the other options and focus on the historical context.
Ramses II, also known as Ramses the Great, was an Egyptian pharaoh who ruled much later than the construction of the Great Pyramid. He lived around 1279-1213 BCE, which is several centuries after the construction of the pyramid.
Tutankhamun, also known as King Tut, became pharaoh at a young age and ruled for a short period in the 14th century BCE. While he was an important historical figure, he did not oversee the construction of the Great Pyramid.
Cleopatra, the last pharaoh of Egypt, also did not have any involvement in the construction of the Great Pyramid. She ruled Egypt much later, around 51-30 BCE, which is again well after the pyramid was built.
Therefore, the correct answer is Khufu, as he ruled during the Fourth Dynasty of ancient Egypt around 2589-2566 BCE and is believed to have ordered the construction of the Great Pyramid of Giza.
