Solution

Between 1610 and 1775, it's estimated that about 50% of the British immigrants to North America were indentured servants. To find the number of indentured servants among the 500,000 British immigrants, we can perform a simple calculation:

  1. Total British Immigrants: 500,000
  2. Percentage of Indentured Servants: 50%

Calculation

Number of Indentured Servants = Total British Immigrants × Percentage of Indentured Servants

Number of Indentured Servants=500,000×0.50=250,000 \text{Number of Indentured Servants} = 500,000 \times 0.50 = 250,000

Final Answer

Therefore, approximately 250,000 of the British immigrants were indentured servants.
