Why did jefferson make the louisiana purchase? a: he thought that by doing so he could avoid war with france. b: he wanted to the french win the war against britain. c: he thought it would be easier than trying to conquer the territory. d: he wanted access to the caribbean colony of saint domingue.

C - He thought it would be easier than trying to conquer the territory.

A is incorrect as, at the time, the United States and France were allies and would not be going to war at any time during this time period.

B is incorrect as, well, how would this aid the French in a war with Britain? If France needed funds from an ally, they could do so.

D is incorrect as, well, the Louisiana Purchase had no access to the Caribbean or the sea much.

Hope this helps!
