1. 1773

2. 1783

3. 1758

4. 1791

The correct answer is: 1773

Prince Edward Island had its first representative assembly in 1773, making option A the correct answer. Option B is incorrect because it is ten years later than the correct answer. Option C is incorrect because it is about 15 years earlier than the correct answer. Option D is also incorrect because it is two years later than the correct answer. Often in multiple choice questions, it is useful to eliminate obviously incorrect options to narrow down the choices and increase the chances of choosing the correct answer. In this case, options B, C, and D can be easily eliminated by considering their proximity to the year 1773.
