Answer
A
how to pay for a war against Britain.
B
whether to attack the British in the South.
C
how to gain allies in a war against Britain.
D
where to put the capital of the colonies.

Explanation

The Second Continental Congress had to organize and fund the Revolutionary War after fighting began in 1775. Since the colonies had limited resources and no established national treasury, figuring out how to pay for the war was a major problem. The capital question and the proposed southern attack were not the central challenge described here.
