Answer:

This excluded a majority of the population: slaves, freed slaves, children, women and metics (foreign residents in Athens).

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage of the population that actually participated in the government was 10% to 20% of the total number of inhabitants, but this varied from the fifth to the fourth century BC. This excluded a majority of the population: slaves, freed slaves, children, women and metics (foreign residents in Athens).
