Answer:

prices fell, factories closed and workers were laid off.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Great Depression lasted from 1929 - 1941. A main cause of the Great Depression was overproduction. Factories and farms were producing more goods than the people could afford to buy. As a result, prices fell, factories closed and workers were laid off.
