Answer:
The King was given one-sixth of their farm produce.
Explanation:
- In ancient India, the Mahajanapadas used to collect taxes called "Bhaga" from the people.
- They had a lot of work like maintaining armies, building forts, etc.
- They require lots of money to complete these projects, so they collected money as tax from their people.
- The farmers had to pay one-sixth of their farm produce to the king.
- They were forced to pay one-sixth Bhaga (share) from the total amount they gain from farming.
Hence, the farmers paid one-sixth of what they earned through farming to the kings as Bhaga(share).
