What prompted jefferson to consider federal spending on education and infrastructure?

There were two major factors that prompted Thomas Jefferson to consider federal spendings on the education and infrastructure. First one was his desire for industrial development, and the second, that he was concerned about the new western territories.

Thomas Jefferson considered basic education as a key component to protecting freedom, virtues and happiness for Americans it aids the individual "know his rights" and "understand his duties" . In 1785, he published his book Notes on the State of Virginia, he proposed that taxpaying citizens would supply the means for education; communities would organize the schooling. The ideas he advocated held true. Our liberties depends upon offering a quality education to the generations to come.

His plan consisted on three stages for the education of children:  

Sadly, Jefferson had little success regarding his attempt to change the education system.

part a. there were 250 teenagers surveyed (100% of tenagers = 250)therefore 1 % = 250/100 = 2.5 76% = 1% x 76 = 2.5 x 76 = 190 teenagers of the 250 surveyed liked burgerspart b: jane surveyed 25% (which is equal to 50 teenagers, i.e. a quarter of the teenagers surveyed is 50) to get 100% we simply get 4 quarters, i.e. multiply 50 by 4 = 200 teenagers were surveyed by jane. part c: it is impossible to give an example where a percentage is greater than 100%, since, by definition , percentage means "per 100".

the fact that could also be added to column b is that during world war ii, specifically between the years 1941 and 1945, japan expanded its territory towards the indonesian territory in what was known later as part of the "pacific war". in that time, japan could conquer the philipines, singapore,   borneo, central java, malang, cebu, sumatra and various other islands of the area, therefore expanding its territory for a brief period of time.
